Join poet Alice Pettway as she reads from her newest work "Station Lights".

Most experiences lie in the long miles between life's stations, but we look toward the next town's lights for reassurance that we will eventually arrive. When those lamps dim, or are passed by in the night, we become disoriented, caught in the blur of a passing landscape. The poems in "Station Lights" embrace this chaos, seeking understanding in the midst of the unfamiliar. 

Alice Pettway is the author of "The Time of Hunger", "Moth" and "Station Lights". Her poetry has also appeared in numerous respected publications including "Agni", "The Southern Review" and "The Threepenny Review". She is a former Chulitna Artist and Lily Peter fellow. Currently, Pettway lives and writes near Seattle, Washington.
