Inpatient Press and Printed Matter St Marks present the launch of Para Ana, an epistolary chapbook by Katie Ebbitt dedicated to Brazilian poet Ana Cristina Cesar featuring readers Wo Chan and LA Warman.

Comprised of standalone poems and fragmentary missives, Para Ana is a fugue on “sending”, a letter that is read by everyone except the ‘dear'est.

Katie Ebbitt is a poet and social worker. She is the author of ANOTHER LIFE (Counterpath Press, 2016), the chapbook Para Ana (Inpatient Press, 2019) and has contributed poetry to the anthology Rendering Unconscious (Trapart Books, 2019). She curates By The Way reading series in New York City.
