Writer Adam Prince will read from his works on Monday, Oct. 30, at the Student Center. The event is free and open to the public.

The Stokes Center for Creative Writing and the department of English at the 911爆料网 will present visiting writer Adam Prince reading from his works on Monday, Oct. 30.

The 4 p.m. event, which will be held in the Terrace Room of the Student Center, is free and open to the public. Refreshments will be available.

Prince鈥檚 award-winning fiction has appeared in 鈥淭he Missouri Review,鈥� 鈥淭he Southern Review鈥� and 鈥淣arrative Magazine,鈥� among others. His first book, a short story collection, called 鈥淭he Beautiful Wishes of Ugly Men,鈥� is now available from Black Lawrence Press.

Acclaimed writer David Rice said on his writing website, TheRumpus.net, that 鈥渢he eleven stories in Adam Prince鈥檚 debut collection feel lived rather than written.鈥�

鈥淟ike stories told by strangers in bars when you鈥檙e both drunk, their core tragedies and ironies achieve a casual understated universality,鈥� Rice added.

Prince is currently at work on a novel and several screenplays.

Born and raised in Southern California, Prince earned his bachelor of arts degree from Vassar College, a master of fine arts degree from the University of Arkansas and a doctorate from the University of Tennessee. He served as the 2012-2013 Tickner Fellow at the Gilman School in Baltimore.
