Join us for an evening with Philadelphia poet Sadie Dupuis. Local poets Trixie Linoleum, Bubble Duchess and Luz Altair will read as well.
About Mouthguard
The poems in Sadie Dupuis’ Mouthguard are a means of developing a deep personal mythology; to read them is to feel what self-discovery is, and then recognize it in the rearview mirror, disappearing over the broken American horizon. They emerge from the place where known experience and the unknown collide; a borderline we all cross on the way to becoming ourselves.
