“And the Bridge Is Love” and More Books

ByGWEnglish
Faye Moskowitz at Politics and Prose on Nov. 13.
Prof. Faye Moskowitz’s reading tonight from the recent re-issue of her collection And the Bridge Is Love (Feminist Press) was a huge success. Not only did Faye get a standing-room-only crowd at Politics and Prose, but the store sold every copy of Bridge in stock. Faye read her wonderful piece about a Michigan family seder disrupted  by the smell of something burning. GW English was well represented, with faculty as well as current and former students in attendance.
