"JERRY I HATE YOU"
Love is easy---what about hate? JERRY MAGAZINE corners four poets into revealing their loathed ones and invites the audience to grow a Hate Tree. Featuring Amy K. Bell, Fox Frazier-Foley, Laura Goode, and Dawn Marie Knopf.
The idea behind the reading is to explore hatred and what hatred might mean. Along with the poets readings (which will feed into the theme), the audience will be asked to contribute to the HATE TREE, modeled after wishing trees in shrines in Japan. People will be invited to write the name of a person or a thing that they hate and tie it onto the tree. The idea is that this act of writing will either admit/declare a hatred, or allow the writer to excise the hatred and leave it behind.
About Litquake:
Litquake is the largest literary festival on the West Coast, and Lit Crawl is the world’s largest literary “pub” crawl, taking place on the closing night of our festival in the Mission. The New York Times calls Lit Crawl “a specter of writing and literature--literature!--transforming an ordinary Saturday night in the neighborhood into a carnival of sorts.”
Lit Crawl is a gift of literature to the city of San Francisco, with a bit of mayhem thrown in, too. It’s a serious happening, featuring more than 450 writers in a single night, spread out over three hours to more than 80 bars, restaurants, galleries, cafés, bookstores, stores, private art studios, and a closed-off Clarion Alley. More than 7,000 people showed up last year to listen to their favorite poets and writers read.
