Time:3:30pm - 5:00pm Location:GSUB 306 An informational session in which faculty from the Department of English at NJCU will provide guidance and answer questions on the process of applying to graduate school (specifically in English/Creative Writing, though advice is certainly applicable to other fields as well), including choosing the right school, writing an effective personal statement, getting strong letters of recommendation, getting an assistantship or fellowship. For information contact Edvige Giunta egiunta@njcu.edu or Joshua Fausty jfausty@njcu.edu
In her intensely personal and insightful memoir, Mary Cappello wonders aloud for us what breast cancer awareness really makes us aware of, and responds as if for the first time to the deceivingly simple command: “tell me what you’re feeling.” Unable to eat on chemotherapy, Cappello feasts on the paintings of Marsden Hartley, yearns in the tradition of Emily Dickinson and Gertrude Stein, keeps company with Marcel Proust, and lets queer artists tease her back to life. Called Back looks through the lens of cancer to discover—often with humor—new truths about intimacy and essential solitude, eroticism, the fact of the body, and the impossibility of turning away.
