Dear Lovely Friends,
I've organized a reading for one of my stellar Corollary
authors, Summi Kaipa, on Sunday August 10th in Brooklyn.
It is a rare treat to have her on the East Coast, and I'm thrilled at the
opportunity to introduce her work to new audiences as well as invite those
already familiar with her writing to have the pleasure of hearing her read.
She'll be reading with the equally talented Tisa Bryant, whose recent book
Unexplained Presence ought to be on everyone's reading list. Their bios are
located below.

Corollary Press Presents Summi Kaipa and Tisa
Bryant
Unnameable Books (Previously Adam's Books)
456 Bergen

Tisa Bryant is the author of Unexplained Presence (Leon
Works, 2007), a collection of original, hybrid essays that remix narratives
from eurocentric film, literature and visual arts and zoom in on the black
presences operating within them. She is currently working on [the curator], a
fiction that meditates on identity, visual culture and the lost films of auteur
Justine Cable, co-editing an anthology for AIDS Project Los Angeles, and is
madly working to get Vol. 2 F-K of the Encyclopedia Project in the hopper.
Summi Kaipa has authored several chapbooks, including
"The Epics" (Leroy Press), "One: I Beg You Be Still"
(Belladonna), and most recently "The Language Parable" (Corollary
Press). For eight years, she was the editor of Interlope, a magazine publishing
innovative writing by Asian Americans, and in 2002, she received a Potrero
Nuevo Fund Prize to write and produce her first play. Once a resident of SF's
bustling Mission District, Kaipa now resides in a quiet neighborhood in North Berkeley, where she has been earning a degree in
clinical psychology and making excruciatingly slow progress on her first
full-length manuscript.
Corollary Press is a small chapbook series devoted to new
work by writers of color. Published out of Philadelphia, all books are hand-sewn in
small editions of 150. Sueyeun Juliette Lee, the editor, specifically seeks out
work by authors that challenge notions of difference, aesthetics, and genre.
