CRITIC'S CHOICE
Andrew Demcak
Having studied under the tutelage of much-laureled bards including Robert Hass, Gary Snyder, Galway Kinnell, Sharon Olds, and Brenda Hillman, Andrew Demcak has been widely published in poetry journals. (Sample lines: "The syringe ... the dull plug of its tongue,/and blood tearing blindly, unreeling to/worship that little prick. .../Hot shrieks next to/the cooking pan.") At Pegasus (2349 Shattuck Ave., Berkeley) on Saturday, Jan. 26, he reads from his debut collection Catching Tigers in Red Weather. Sharing the podium is Oakland-born Nina Lindsay, author of the debut collection Today's Special Dish. 7:30 p.m. PegasusBookstore.com

ANDREW DEMCAK AS SEEN IN THE WIKIPEDIA

I found out this morning that a "poet stub", which is part of Wikipedia's Biography Project, has been begun about me. I am so flattered! Please feel free to add and update it, as I am sure I will when I can figure out the basic HTML that's going on in there... I like the German version of their logo, don't you?

ANDREW DEMCAK @ THE DUBLIN QUARTERLY

I have 4 poems in the next edition of the Irish on-line magazine The Dublin Quarterly. It's nice being published on the other side of the pond. Home of James Joyce and Sam Beckett, and now me.
