Nick Martino, author of SCRAP BOOK- a Boswell event
About this Event
Boswell Book Company presents an evening with Milwaukee native Nick Martino, author of Scrap Book. This lyric, hybrid collection of poems centers on the exploration of Martino's father’s Pr*son sentence and its aftermath. Weaving poems with invented forms, familial documents, and fragmented memory, Martino constructs an autoethnographic study of carceral trauma and its reverberations across generations.
