Tickets: East End Books Ptown Presents: Stephanie Burt "Super Gay Poems" 6/29 @ 6pm Tickets, Sun, Jun 29, 2025 at 6:00 PM | Eventbrite

Stephanie Burt is the author of fourteen books of poetry and literary criticism, including Super Gay Poems and Don't Read Poetry. A past judge for the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry, she served as a board member of the National Book Critics Circle, is the recipient of a Guggenheim Fellowship, and writes regularly for the New York Times Book Review, the New Yorker, London Review of Books, the New York Review of Books, Raritan, and other publications. She is the Donald P. and Katherine B. Loker Professor of English at Harvard University.

You might’ve seen some buzz about her recent class at Harvard where she’s exploring Taylor Swift through a literary lens—it’s exactly the kind of fascinating, cross-genre thinking she’s known for.
