SUMMARY:Pittsburgh Launch! Christopher Kondrich "Tread Upon" with Diana K
 hoi Nguyen
DESCRIPTION:RSVP to attend In-store! Register for Livestream! We are grat
 eful to host Christopher Kondrich in celebration of his third book of po
 etry\, Tread Upon! Imaginative\, visionary\, and intensely lyric\, Tread
  Upon challenges our anthropocentric culture and questions notions of in
 dividual responsibility amid corporate misinformation. Christopher will 
 be joined in conversation by local poet\, multimedia artist\, and educat
 or\, Diana Khoi Nguyen. Tread Upon —by turns tender and furious\, and wh
 olly original—attempts to depict the various scales upon which climate c
 hange unfolds around us. Bold\, incisive\, and wholly original\, Christo
 pher Kondrich's Tread Upon explores the social\, political\, religious\,
  and economic drivers behind the chronic devaluation of the living world
 . In this book-length sequence\, in which each section unravels a word o
 r phrase of the prefatory poem\, Tread Upon sprawls from suburbia to the
  Southern Ocean\, from the Cape Fear River to the phones in our hands. K
 ondrich juxtaposes the intimate with the epic\, integrating climate rese
 arch and reporting to dismantle narratives of anthropocentrism and our i
 ndividual responsibility amid corporate misinformation. What is the pric
 e of our (in)actions and who must pay the cost? In this world where “eve
 n one blade is a place\," the sequence reveals that the violence done to
  the living world is violence done to ourselves. DIANA KHOI NGUYEN is th
 e author of Root Fractures and Ghost Of\, a finalist for the National Bo
 ok Award and winner\n\nTickets: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/pittsburgh-
