Phoenix Poets New Voices in Poetry with Kristin Dykstra

The New Voices series brings emerging writers to campus to read with a University of Chicago student. The faculty chooses writers that have published one or two books. We have a separate event for Fiction, Non-Fiction, and Poetry. These are particularly special events for our Program because it is one of the opportunities for our students to showcase their work.

Kristin Dykstra is a writer, literary translator, and scholar whose numerous translations include works by prominent Cuban writers and whose first original collection, Dissonance, will publish with the Phoenix Poets series in Spring 2025.

Sponsored by the Program in Creative Writing, the College and the University of Chicago Press.
