SUMMARY:STORIES ON SUNDAY: Kirsten Reneau (Sensitive Creatures)
DESCRIPTION: Note: if you’re reading this on mobile\, the full ticket instructions might not be showing in the ticket box above; to register\, add your chosen dollar amount and number of tickets using the + sign. (For a free ticket\, simply put in $0.) Ticket includes live event and access to recording. \nEnjoy a reading\, then hear the story behind the stories during Stories on Sunday with essayist Kirsten Reneau. \nIn an unflinching yet hopeful prose\, Sensitive Creatures (Belle Point Press; March 2024) explores the most animal parts of our human nature. Discussions of various creatures in the natural world serve as portals to the painful realities Kirsten Reneau confronts in the process of breaking—and remaking—a home. \nHonest in their descriptions of sexual assault and its traumatic effects\, these essays are at once clinical and lyrical reflections on the ways that desire can permeate our lives for better or worse\, as well as how it can be channeled into a lifegiving force for women in a world often hostile to their basic needs. Sensitive Creatures ultimately is a story of darkness\, resilience\, and the light that still manages to crack through. \nAll Stories on Sunday guest readers have a connection to Hippocampus Magazine. A past contributor\, Kirsten received a Pushcart Prize nomination for the essay “An Incredibly Brief and Unfinished History of Sound\,” which appeared in our March-April 2019 issue. We also published “Bar Bathroom Graffiti in New Orleans: A One Year Catalog” in September-October 2020. Both of these essays appear in her debut collection! \nAbout the Series: Stories on Sundays are bi-monthly readings from a recent/forthcoming work of creative nonfiction followed by an author interview + audience Q&A. Your registration helps fund our contributor payments and other costs associated with running our journal. \nMeet the Speaker\nKirsten Reneau is a writer living in the south. She graduated from West Virginia Wesleyan College and received her MFA from the University of New Orleans. In addition to her first full-length collection Sensitive Creatures\, she is the author of two chapbooks\, and her work has been published in The Threepenny Review\, Alaska Quarterly Review\, Reed Magazine\, and others.
