John and Wendy McVicker join Emily Votaw in the studio to discuss ‘Sliced Dark,’ their first collaborative, published work. The book is made up of Wendy’s poems and John’s corresponding visual responses. Wendy reads three of her poems, “Bad Buddhist,” “Things That Are White (Her Last Birthday)”, and “Sliced Dark.”
On Thursday, January 31, the couple have a reading scheduled at Little Professor Books (65 South Court Street, Athens) from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. On Saturday, February 16, the couple will bring their work to the Athens Public Library (30 Home Street, Athens) at 2 p.m. Broadsides of the poems and the accompanying collages will be on display at Donkey Coffee (17 West Washington Street) starting in mid-March.
