SUMMARY:Poetry Night Reading Series: Kim Stanley Robinson and Laurie Glover
DESCRIPTION:The Poetry Night Reading Series is excited to feature the multi-genre authors Kim Stanley Robinson and Laurie Glover at 7 PM on Thursday\, March 21st\, 2024\, on the first floor of the John Natsoulas Gallery\, 521 1st Street in Davis. \nKim Stanley Robinson is an American science fiction writer. He is the author of about twenty books\, including the internationally bestselling Mars trilogy\, and more recently Red Moon\, New York 2140\, and The Ministry for the Future. He was part of the U.S. National Science Foundation’s Antarctic Artists and Writers’ Program in 1995 and 2016\, and a featured speaker at COP-26 in Glasgow\, as a guest of the UK government and the UN. His work has been translated into 28 languages\, and won awards including the Hugo\, Nebula\, and World Fantasy awards.
