Michael Lally | Another Way to Play
Spanning more than fifty years, Lally’s collected poems testify to a remarkable career that’s included some thirty volumes of poetry and prose, acting, music, and activism. Writing in the accessible and colloquial vein of Whitman, Williams Carlos Williams, and Frank O’Hara, Lally has eluded schools and conventions while embracing a variety of voices, places, styles, and themes.

Terence Winch | Known Universe
Winch has been a fixture of the D.C. arts scene since the early 1970s. With Michael Lally he co-founded Some of Us Press and participated in the first Mass Transit Readings. Equally active as a musician, he’s played traditional Irish music since childhood and co-founded the band Celtic Thunder. His latest collection of poetry is as well-crafted as it is whimsical, using and discarding forms, singing, telling jokes, surprising, and delighting.
