Evelyn Berry in Conversaton with Ray McManus
Apr 2 @ 6:00 pm
Hub City Writers Project

Evelyn Berry and Ray McManus discuss Berry’s poetry collection Grief Slut— an examination of the queer lineage in the American South.

Join Evelyn Berry and Ray McManus at Hub City Bookshop as they discuss Berry’s poetry collection Grief Slut on Tuesday, April 2nd at 6:00PM.

Get a 10% discount on the book when you RSVP and purchase a copy on Eventbrite!

About the Book:

Evelyn Berry’s debut poetry collection, Grief Slut, is an examination of the queer lineage of pleasure, grief, and resilience in the American South. Berry offers a portrait of a girl living through boyhood and grappling with the violence of nostalgia in poems that blend high art, archival slivers, and Taco Bell. This collection invites us into a landscape home to sloppy kissers, swamp suitors, scrappy “limbwrecked boys,” and drag queens drenched in glitter sweat, where “each day is trespass” and queer youth fight to “hear one another breathe just a little while longer.”

About the Author

Evelyn Berry is a trans, Southern writer, editor, and education. She’s the author of Grief Slut (Sundress Publications, 2024). She’s a recipient of a 2023 National Endownment for the Arts Poetry Fellowship and lives in Columbia, South Carolina.

About the in-conversation partner

Ray McManus is the author of four books of poetry: Punch. (winner of the 2015 Independent Publishers Book Award for Best Book of Poetry in North America), Red Dirt Jesus (selected by Alicia Ostriker for the Marick Press Poetry Prize 2011), and Driving through the country before you are born (winner of the South Carolina Book Prize in 2006), and a chapbook called Left Behind. He is the co-editor for the anthology Found Anew with notable contributors with South Carolina ties. His poems have been published in numerous journals such as CrazyhorsePrairie Schooner, and POETRY magazine. He lives in South Carolina where he teaches for USC Sumter and serves as the Writer in Residence for the Columbia Museum of Art. Pre-order his newest poetry collection The Last Saturday in America from Hub City Press here.
