Join us for the East Coast Book Release Party for Sarah Fran Wisby‘s new book, the heart’s progress. Wisby will be joined by Amanda Davidson and Dia Felix.

What begins as an exercise in anthropomorphism quickly becomes a raucous joyride and moving confession. THE HEART’S PROGRESS’s pitch-perfect timing, dark hilarity, imaginative range, and spot-on insights into the spastic stations of the human heart perform a seduction so complete, I’m ready to follow Sarah Fran Wisby off a cliff — or at least, read everything she writes.
–Maggie Nelson, author of The Art Of Cruelty

Sarah Fran Wisby is the author of the heart’s progress and VIVA LOSS. She writes poetry, essays, pornography, novels, and status updates.
