Book Launch for Andrew Zawacki: THESE LATE ECLIPSES

Please join the English Department and the Creative Writing Program as we celebrate Andrew Zawacki's latest collection, These Late Eclipses. Composed during lockdown from March to September 2020, These Late Eclipses is a bracing yet lyrical record of the dystopia that descended with COVID-19. The reading will also feature two of Zawacki's students, Danielle Kotrla and Samuel Horgan. Afterwards, we welcome guests to stay for a reception. 

English Department Head Roland Végső says, “Andrew Zawacki’s work stands out for its rare fusion of theoretical rigor and sensory immediacy, bringing poetry, translation, and image into striking conversation. His writing is marked by a precision that charts new pathways through language and perception. Across genres, Zawacki continually expands the possibilities of form, offering readers work that is adventurous, deeply felt, and unmistakably his own.”

Andrew Zawacki is an American poet, critic, editor, translator, and a Distinguished Research Professor with the Creative Writing Program at the University of Georgia.
