CHAX PRESS and POG present:
a poetry reading and book launch
Elizabeth Treadwell
Tuesday January 13 2004 7pm at Biblio bookstore 222 E. Congress Street Tucson, Arizona Admission: $5/$3 students for information call Chax Press at 620-1626
Elizabeth Treadwell lives with her family in Oakland, California. Her other books include Populace (Avec, 1999) and LILYFOIL + 3 (O Books, 2004). She directs Small Press Traffic in San Francisco.
Chax Press announces a new book: CHANTRY, by Elizabeth Treadwell published in 2004, and available for the first time at this event.
Chantry is song. Chantry is song that exceeds song structure in all dimensions to become invocation and enchantment. From “the vessel without a cover” to “late silhouette in / blue” it refuses to be contained, as a book wants to live outside its covers.

“This faith was expressed using symbols of shaped metal, embroidered cloth, carved wood, and painted canvas.” —curator, San Xavier Mission, Tucson, Arizona, U.S.A.
in a well-sought dream remember think of something plain like Grammy’s tears; think of something plain like the color and curvature of gingerale nightgown & bend & kink of patio, how the 3rd vowel of her name was scratched in.
