Pulitzer Winner at Writers Speak

The Writers Speak series of readings returns to the Stony Brook Southampton campus Wednesday with Vijay Seshadri, who won the 2014 Pulitzer Prize in poetry for his collection “3 Sections.” Mr. Seshadri’s poems have appeared in The Paris Review, Poetry magazine, and The New Yorker, as well as in four editions of The Best American Poetry anthology. He teaches creative writing at Sarah Lawrence College.

The reading starts at 7 p.m. in the Radio Lounge, upstairs in Chancellors Hall, to be preceded at 6 by an open house held by the M.F.A. program in creative writing and literature.

The series also brings Nahid Rachlin and Elena Gorokhova on Oct. 8, Alissa Nutting on Oct. 22, Julia Fierro on Oct. 29, Joydeep Roy-Bhattacharya on Nov. 5, and, on Nov. 12, Brian Morton interviewed by the college’s Daniel Menaker, a former fiction editor at The New Yorker. Students in the M.F.A. program will read from their work on Dec. 3.
