Brooke Horvath
A poet, professor, and scholar, Brooke Horvath grew up in Elyria, Ohio. He is the author of three previous books of poetry, In a Neighborhood of Dying Light, Consolation at Ground Zero, and The Lecture on Dust, as well as a book of criticism, Understanding Nelson Algren. He co-edited, with Dan Simon, Algren's Entrapment and Other Uncollected Writings, also published by Seven Stories Press. Horvath is Emeritus Professor of English at Kent State University and splits his time between Kent, Ohio, and Fredonia, New York.

“As long time friends who used to go to Brady’s Cafe Open Night Poetry Readings, it made sense for these two talented poets to come together for a reading at Last Exit Books. This has been a long time coming.”
