Parks, Squares, Lawns, Woods, and Dales: The Burghs of Fictive Chicago

Chicago writers Billy Lombardo, Gina Frangello and Eric May read from their work and consider how Chicago as a city of lines and borders crafted by civic history has defined them as writers, teachers and editors. The authors will address this city of interwoven villages, and how it has informed the insights offered in their poetry and prose.
