Poet Stefan Lovasik is the next featured author in our new Minnesota Writers Series. Lovasik, a Viet Nam combat veteran, has published three poetry collections. His most recent, The Latitude of a Mercy, was published by New York Quarterly Books. His work has appeared in national magazines such as American Literary Review, Consequence and New York Quarterly. He is a facilitator for Warrior Writers-Twin Cities and a staff editor for Pedestal Magazine. Lovasik’s work brings into striking focus the landscape of war; the lasting physical, moral and psychological consequences of it; and the resilience of the human spirit. He will discuss his latest collection, the power of writing as a tool for healing, and his work on his upcoming memoir. Introducing the poet and doing her own reading will be fellow Veteran Chante Wolfe, who is part of a Warriors Writers group with Lovasik.

Co-sponsored by Veterans For Peace.
