Writers Halina Duraj and Christopher Patton will read from their works for the
City Art Reading Series on January 9th at 7:00 P.M. at the Salt Lake City
Librarys Main Branch.
Halina Duraj has a master's in creative writing from the University of
California, Davis, and is currently a Ph.D. student in creative writing at the
University of Utah. Her essay, "My Boyfriend Is a Fascist," won first place
for non-fiction in the Utah Arts Council Writing Competition, and some of her
fiction is forthcoming in Witness, Third Coast, and Descant.
Christopher Patton's first book, Ox, was published by Signal Editions of
Vehicule Press in 2007. Patton's poems have appeared in The Antioch Review,
The Malahat Review, and The Fiddlehead, and were anthologized in The New
Canon: An Anthology of Canadian Poetry. In 2000, he was awarded The Paris
Review's Bernard F. Conners Prize for Poetry. Patton writes, and tends his
apple trees, on Salt Spring Island.
The event is free and open to the public. City Art is sponsored by the Utah
Arts Council, the Salt Lake City Arts Council, Zoo, Arts, and Parks,
X-mission, and audience donations. The featured reading will be followed by
