About this Event

Join Cori Winrock at Village Books and Paper Dreams for a reading of Alterations—a haunting, lyrical journey exploring loss and possibility.


“Like many collectives whose existence and skills might seem unfathomable, most of us won’t know about them until there is a need to know." --Cori Winrock


Threading together stories of textiles and texts, from the first space suits and the seamstresses who made them, to Emily Dickinson's famous white dress, to the Steinian rhythms of Goodnight Moon, Winrock constructs and reconstructs an essay that might begin to accommodate devastating loss. A work of process and possibility, Alterations enacts the hidden labors of mourning.


Cori Winrock is a poet and multimedia essayist. Her book-length essay, Alterations, is part of the Undelivered Lecture series from Transit Books. Her previous book, Little Envelope of Earth Conditions, was chosen as Editor's Choice for the Alice James Book Award. She is the winner of the Boston Review Poetry Prize and her essay on twins was selected as a notable essay in Best American Essays. Her work has appeared in The Paris Review, POETRY, the Best New Poets anthology, Bennington Review, Fairy Tale Review, and elsewhere. She is an assistant professor of Interactive Poetics at Western Washington University.
