Description:

Great Lakes writer and poet Alison Swan reads from her essay "Fresh water" and other of her works about love, hunting, and the natural world in a time of suburban sprawl, at an event held at the Michigan State University Main Library. Swan also reminisces about her time at MSU, the influence of MSU Distinguished Professor Diane Wakoski on her life and work, and describes her own writing as "an attempt to write a picture". She answers a question from the audience about submitting her first work for publication while still a student of Professor Wakoski. Swan is introduced by Librarian Peter Berg for the Michigan State University Libraries' Michigan Writers Series.
