The gents'll kick off our season in our new digs on March 21st!

Imaginary Press Reading Series has found a new home at Jon Oulman Salon. Huzzah!

Come celebrate with us and hear the phenomenal work of these fine poets:

John Gallaher is the author of Gentlemen in Turbans, Ladies in Cauls, and The Little Book of Guesses. His poems have appeared or are forthcoming in Field, New American Writing, Boston Review, and The Best American Poetry. He lives in rural Missouri and co-edits The Laurel Review.


Dobby Gibson's first book, Polar (Alice James Books), won the Beatrice Hawley Award and was a finalist for the Minnesota Book Award. A second collection, Skirmish, is forthcoming from Graywolf Press in early2009. The recipient of fellowships from the McKnight Foundation andJerome Foundation, he lives in Minneapolis with his wife Kathy and their daughter Scarlett Moon.

Eric Lorberer holds an MFA from the University of Massachusetts and has published dozens of poems in journals ranging from American Poetry Review to Volt. He lives in Minneapolis, where he edits Rain Taxi Review of Books and directs the Twin Cities Book Festival.

It's Ready!

Listed on the side is the brand new season of the Imaginary Press Reading Series, folks!

As we celebrate the fine poets, we also lament the loss of a wonderful venue: Opposable Thumbs Used Books and Vinyl has closed its doors. I send an eternal Thank You to Ed Hilbrich for nurturing our tender first year.

I'll reveal the address of a new venue along with bios and photos of our dashing first readers of the season, in the coming weeks. Check back!
