SUMMARY:Davis Poetry Night Reading & Open Mic
DESCRIPTION:Join Poetry in Davis for the first Poetry Night Reading Series of 2025. \nParis-based poet Nicolette Daskalakis will be reading from her latest poetry book “Tell Me I’m Not On Fire” (Rich Poets Press). Opening for Daskalakis will be the Davis poet Dorine Jennette\, author of “Urchin to Follow” (The National Poetry Review Press). The reading will be followed by an open mic\, which begins at 8pm. Please arrive early to sign up for the open mic portion\, as most slots are filled by 7pm. \nThursday\, January 2nd @ 7pm\nJohn Natsoulas Gallery\n521 1st Street\, Davis\, CA \nAbout Nicolette Daskalakis:\nBorn in the fog of San Francisco\, Nicolette Daskalakis is a writer\, filmmaker\, and multidisciplinary artist based in Paris. Her writing has been anthologized by HarperCollins\, nominated for a Pushcart Prize\, and published in numerous literary journals. Daskalakis is the author of multiple poetry books\, including Tell Me I’m Not On Fire (2024) and Portrait of Your Ex Assembling Furniture (2018). She holds a BA in Film & TV Production from the USC School of Cinematic Arts and an MFA from the Institut Supérieur des Arts et du Design de Toulouse. Nicolette is also a graduate of Davis Senior High School. \nAbout “Tell Me I’m Not On Fire”:\n“Tell Me I’m Not on Fire” emergency ejects the reader into a burning landscape populated by men in ski masks\, televised beauty queens\, ordained Elvis impersonators\, and lonely arsonists. These poems set fire to the facade of “Everything’s fine!” and examine what’s hidden underneath. Dark humor\, raw intimacy\, and a host of pop culture references ultimately reveal the unending apocalypse of being human. We’re all on fire\, but that’s alright. Buckle up and let these poems rob a bank\, throw you into an unmarked van\, and high-speed chase a hurricane. Once you get to know them\, you’ll find you have a lot more in common than you thought. \nAbout the Poetry Night Reading Series:\nThe Poetry Night Reading Series\, hosted by Dr. Andy Jones\, is a twice-monthly poetry reading featuring established writers\, poets\, and performers. The Poetry Night occurs on the first and third Thursday of every month at the John Natsoulas Gallery. Find out more about the Poetry Night Reading Series by visiting http://www.poetryindavis.com \n
