An Evening of Poetry with Monica Ferrell, Devon Walker-Figueroa, and Morgan Parker

We’re delighted to host poets Monica Ferrell, Devon Walker-Figueroa, and Morgan Parker at H&H Books on Tuesday, May 12 at 7 PM. Monica, Devon, and Morgan will each present a short reading and discuss their work together. A Q&A and book signing will follow their discussion.

Monica’s new poetry collection, The Future, recently released in March 2026, will be available for purchase, as well as books by Devon (Lazarus Species) and Morgan (Magical Negro, There Are More Beautiful Things Than Beyonce).

In their starred review of The Future, Publishers Weekly raved, “In this long-anticipated follow-up to 2008’s Beasts for the Chase, Ferrell renders familiar literary tropes suddenly new, surprising, and dangerous again…’astonishingly exact’ rules of decorum and décor give rise to boredom and, in the end, self-destructive impulses.”

Registration is free or PWYC and highly recommended! An attendance count helps us organize our space and plan even more events for our community.
