Lindsey Webb will read from her poetic exploration of Mormonism, suicide, and gender in the American West, Plat. LA Warman says, “In Webb’s brilliant book, Plat, a story unfolds in plants and in futures that do not exist. The poems ask, is there room for death in the utopia? Is there room for any of us in the plat, in the house, or in the garden? Reading this stunning collection reinforces that loss is both collective and connecting. Together we are in the house and together we are hurting. Windows, walls, all feeling.”

Lindsey Webb is the author of Plat (Archway Editions), which was named a best poetry book of 2024 by The New York Times Book Review and a 2024 notable read by the Utah Book Awards, and two chapbooks. Her writing has appeared in Chicago Review, Denver Quarterly, The Iowa Review, and Lana Turner, among others. She is an editor at Thirdhand Books and a visiting assistant professor of creative writing at Grinnell College.
