SUMMARY:Visiting Writers Series with Joseph Earl Thomas
DESCRIPTION:Joseph Earl Thomas is the author of Sink\, a memoir (Grand Central Publishing\, 2023)\, longlisted for the PEN/Jean Stein Book Award\, and shortlisted for the William Saroyan International Writing Prize; the novel God Bless You\, Otis Spunkmeyer (Grand Central Publishing\, 2024)\, longlisted for the Carnegie Medal for Literary Excellence\, finalist for the LA Times Art Seidenbaum Award\, winner of the Center for Fiction First Novel Prize; and the forthcoming story collection Leviathan Beach (Penguin Random House\, 2027). His prose and poetry has been published or is forthcoming in The Kenyon Review\, The Paris Review\, The Verge\, Harper’s\, Virginia Quarterly Review\, Vanity Fair\, The Yale Review\, The Massachusetts Review\, and Dilettante Army. His honors include the 2020 Chautauqua Janus Prize\, The Anisfield-Wolf Fellowship in Writing and Publishing\, and fellowships from Kimbilio\, VONA\, Tin House and Bread Loaf. A graduate of the University of Notre Dame’s MFA program in prose\, he earned his  PhD in English from The University of Pennsylvania. He is a member of the writing faculty at Sarah Lawrence College as well as low residency MFA programs at Holy Family and Randolph Colleges\, and teaches courses in Black Studies\, Poetics\, Video Games\, Queer Theory and more at The Brooklyn Institute for Social Research.\n \n \nOf his debut novel\, the New York Times Books Review stated: “Like the work of Jackson Pollock\, the novel reveals itself the longer one spends time with it. Keep looking\, the chaos will start to show its pattern\, its rhythm\, its dimension and its awe-inspiring color\,” while NPR said: “It’s hard to list all the themes Thomas tackles with aplomb in this book – just know it’s smart\, fast moving and funny as hell.”\n \n \nCopies of Dr. Thomas’s books will be for sale at the event. In addition\, he’ll lead a craft discussion in my fiction seminar from 3-4pm in the Student Center\, Room 202C. If you’d like to attend\, let me know ASAP as space is limited. \n \nIf you plan to attend the reading\, please RSVP to Michele McBride\, mmcbride@monmouth.edu.
