Join us for a reading with two members of the Workshop's visiting faculty:

Tony Tulathimutte’s novel Private Citizens was called “the first great millennial novel” by New York Magazine. A graduate of Stanford University and the Iowa Writers’ Workshop, he has written for The New York Times, VICE, WIRED, The New Yorker, The Atlantic, The New Republic, N+1, Playboy, The Paris Review, and many others. He has received a 2017 Whiting Award, an O. Henry Award, and a MacDowell Fellowship, and appeared as a guest on Late Night with Seth Meyers.

Kai Ihns is the author of two books of poems, Of (The Elephants/Fonograf Editions, 2024), and sundaey (Propeller Books, 2020), as well as a number of pamphlets and chapbooks. She also works as an editor and researcher, and has held roles at venues including the Neubauer Collegium at the University of Chicago, The Paris Review, Conjunctions, and Chicago Review. Her research focuses on forms of reflexivity and orientational prosody in contemporary experimental poetry and film. Other projects include The Year, a chapbook press.
