Robert Glück reading at Green Arcade BooksWednesday, September 18, 7pm Party with Robert Glück for the re-issue of: Elements, recently published by Ithuriel's Spear 1680 Market Street @Gough Join us for this celebration of the 30th anniversary of this legendary collection of stories by Robert Glück, originally published in 1982 in San Francisco as Elements of a Coffee Service. "Bob's fiction is actually quite friendly yet he cuts it with a knife. Bob's gift to the history of letters I think is the uncanniness of his flow. He pulls down the page like a shade, it's masterful what he does. His page is more filled with light than words, really. More filled with temperature too."—Eileen Myles, from the preface to Elements Robert Glück is the author of nine books of poetry and fiction; including two novels, Margery Kempe and Jack the Modernist; two books of stories, Elements and Denny Smith; and a book of poems and short prose, Reader. Glück was co–director of Small Press Traffic, Director of The Poetry Center at San Francisco State, and Associate Editor at Lapis Press. He prefaced Between Life and Death, a book of paintings by Frank Moore and, with artist Dean Smith, made the film Aliengnosis. He also edited the anthology Biting the Error: Writers on Narrative with Gail Scott, Camille Roy, and Mary Berger, and he lives "high on a hill" in San Francisco.
