Queer Lit: New Work Readings by Brittany Newell, Brontez Purnell, and Eric Sneathen
Brittany Newell, author of Soft Core, curates a stellar lineup of writers and performers, including Brontez Purnell (Ten Bridges I’ve Burnt), Eric Sneathen (Don’t Leave Me This Way), alongside Newell herself. They’ll share from new unpublished works that reimagine identity, desire, and the cities we live in through the lens of speculative fiction, fantasy, and urban magic.
Hosted by the magnetic Baruch Porras-Hernandez, and featuring a performance by Gabriele Christian, this literary salon promises stories that seduce, startle, and transport. For those who are drawn to queer futures and shimmer with desire for parallel worlds, there’s something here to ignite your imagination.
Note: This event is for mature audiences.
