April 6, Marci Nelligan, is featured poet at the Midtown Scholar

Marci Nelligan, who teaches creative writing at Franklin & Marshall College, is featured at the Midtown Scholar Bookstore reading series on April 6, 2017
She's been published in numerous journals, including Chain, syllogism, Free Lunch, and the Walrus.

Nelligan's Infinite Variations was published with Black Radish Books in 2011. Nelligan’s second full-length collection The Ghost Manada is her most recent tome.
Marci Nelligan’s Ghost Manada is a book of insistent absence in conversation with her own shade songs. The book is an intertext of experimental lyrics speaking to and through Cormac McCarthy’s Blood Meridian and the spirit of Emily Dickinson.
