NYC | Strange & Beautiful: A Writing Salon on the Inexpressible
Join Lit Society for Strange & Beautiful, a Writing Salon hosted by author, editor, and writing instructor K Hank Jost on literary “difficulty,” distinctive style, and the challenge of translating complex thought onto the page. Through excerpts from Shakespeare, Joyce, Melville, Lutz, Woolf, and Schutt, we’ll examine sentences that are dense, strange, beautiful, or resistant and what they reveal about voice and consciousness. Guided exercises in sound, free association, rhythm, syntax, and style will turn close reading into creative practice.
