According to former U.S. Poet Laureate Ada Limón, “Jason Schneiderman is one of our nation’s best poets” and his latest collection, Self Portrait of Icarus as a Country on Fire (Red Hen, 2024) stands out as “his finest book yet.” Schneiderman’s poems are simultaneously delightful & provocative, humor leading the way into complex conversations about queer life, Jewish identity, politics, and divorce. Schneiderman’s reading will be followed by a conversation with S. Brook Corfman. Free & open to the public. Books sold & signing follows. Livestream also available on the BDPC YouTube page.
