Nikolai Beope and Chinaka Hodge
UCSD's New Writing Series is excited to announce a reading from Chinaka Hodge and Nikolai Beope.
Nikolai Boepe writes surreal, energetic, sometimes rhythmic narratives, usually about the city. His most recent publishing was in Ink & Coda's inaugural issue, an online journal dedicated to prose and music. He will be reading from his novel in progress about incarcerated youth during the early '90s, who were sent to boot camp like institutions in states where child abuse laws differed.
Chinaka Hodge is a poet, educator, playwright, and screenwriter. Her poems, editorials, interviews, and prose have been featured in Newsweek, San Francisco Magazine, Believer Magazine, PBS, NPR, CNN, CSpan, and two seasons of HBO’s Def Poetry. Info: [email protected].
