Poetry Double Feature with Josh Dugat and A.M. O'Malley

📅 October 23, 2025 | 5:30–7:00 PM
📍 Ernest & Hadley Booksellers

Josh Dugat will share from his debut collection, Great and Small (Able Muse Press, 2025). His work has been featured in The Literary Review, TriQuarterly, and America. Recipient of fellowships from the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, Arrowmont School of Craft, and the Arctic Research Consortium, Josh’s poetry reflects both a sense of place and the small delights of daily life. He now teaches at the University of Alabama.

A.M. O’Malley, poet, writer, and artist from Nashville, will read from her powerful new collection, Tuscaloosa Grief Factory (2025). Known for her ability to weave together the political and personal, O’Malley explores themes of loss, motherhood, and resilience. Her earlier book, Expecting Something Else (2016), established her as a vital voice in contemporary poetry. One unafraid to confront grief while lifting up moments of beauty.
