Event Details

Poetry is Normal Presents Lynne Jensen Lampe, in person and on YouTube Live, on Tuesday, July 18, 7-8 pm, reading from her new book, Talk Smack to a Hurricane.

Lynne Jensen Lampe was born in Newfoundland and raised mostly in Louisiana, with a few early years spent in Wisconsin. Themes of conformity, sanity, gender, and faith often find their way into her work. Lynne’s poems appear in many journals, including Figure 1, Yemassee, The American Journal of Poetry, One, and Rock & Sling, as well as SMEOP: Urban, a UK anthology. She was a finalist for the 2020 Red Wheelbarrow Poetry Prize. Lynne lives with her husband and two dogs in Columbia, MO. When not throwing squeaky toys, she edits academic books and journals.
