SALT LAKE CITY – Westminster College hosts the 2011 Ellipsis debut with a free reading by poet Fiona Sze-Lorrain as part of the Anne Newman Sutton Weeks Poetry Series. The event will take place on April 20, 2012, at 7 p.m. in the Dumke Student Theatre in the Emma Eccles Jones Conservatory. In publication since 1966, Ellipsis is one of a few nationally recognized literary magazines produced by undergraduate students. The magazine features poetry, prose and art by national (and occasionally, international) authors and artists, as well as by students. Selections from this new issue will be read by the magazine staff and Martha Silano. Martha Silano is the author of three books of poetry--What the Truth Tastes Like, Blue Positive, and The Little Office of the Immaculate Conception, chosen by Campbell McGrath as the winner of the 2010 Saturnalia Books Poetry Prize. Her poems have appeared in Paris Review, Kenyon Review, Poetry Daily, American Poetry Review, Ellipsis, and The Best American Poetry 2009, among others. Martha teaches at Bellevue College, near her home in Seattle, WA. A book signing sponsored by Sam Weller’s Bookstore will follow the reading. For more information, please contact Natasha Sajé, professor of English, at (801) 832-2376 or nsaje@westminstercollege.edu.
