Poet Diane Gilliam will read at Westfield State University on Wednesday, April 5 at 4:00.

Come hear Gilliam read from Kettle Bottom, her award-winning Perugia Press book that explores the West Virginia Mine Wars from the perspectives of those who lived and worked in the coal camps, and perhaps hear a preview from her new book Dreadful Wind & Rain, out from Red Hen Press this April!

Gilliam’s reading will take place in the Arno Maris Gallery, on the 2nd floor of the Ely Campus Center.
