Peculiar Pages

.

This Saturday at Claremont Graduate University, Sunstone West, a small tidier Sunstone Symposium, will feature panels about two Peculiar Pages book. (Note that times and participants are subject to clarification.)

The first, Monsters & Mormons, accomplished with the help of A Motley Vision and the most fun currently available in print. Participating authors Erik Peterson (“Bichos”) and Brian Gibson (“The Eye Opener”) will be talking about their works as well as reading their own and others’ stories. Responding to their presentation will be Patrick Q. Mason, the Howard W. Hunter Chair of Mormon Studies and Associate Professor of North American Religion at Claremont, and the author of The Mormon Menace: Violence and Anti-Mormonism in the Postbellum South (Oxford University Press, 2011).

Also featured are several poets from Fire in the Pasture. Featuring editor, poet, and AMV-contributor Tyler Chadwick discussing a Javen Tanner poem, and, in a separate session, readings from Tyler, Neil Aitkin, Karen Kelsay, Elisa Pulido, Laura Stott, Holly Welker, and, we hope, more.

Sunstone West is always great fun and you’ll want to catch other panels and presentations while you’re there.

Come to L.A.!

Mike, as I’m sure I don’t need to tell you, is one of modern comics’s great talents—possibly a genius—and, wait for it, he’s a Mormon. This is his spifftacular take on our latest tome.

Isn’t it incredible that existence even exists?  So much is taken for granted, right?  For anyone that ever wanted to crack open their consciousness to what might be beyond the beyond, MORMONS &MONSTERS could be the read for you.

If you have not been following Fire in the Pasture editor Tyler Chadwick’s scintillating and scalpellating comments on the poems of his new book, you are truly missing out. The added value of his mini-essays  could well double the what you’re getting for your money. So pick up a copy of Fire in the Pasture (if you haven’t already) and follow along at home.
