- **Event Name**: Rose McLarney & Braulio Fonseca
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 25 Apr, 2026 at 03:00 pm (-04:00)
- **Event Description**: Rose McLarney &amp; Braulio Fonseca will visit City Lights Bookstore on Saturday, April 25th at 3:00pm. Rose will read from her new book of lyric essays, Rubble Masonry, and Braulio from his forthcoming memoir, Learning to Swim.

Rubble Masonry is a collection of lyric essays that takes its title from the practice of stone masons who, rather than using materials cut to ideal measurements, work with found rocks’ natural shapes. It combines the rich images and musical language of poetry with prose’s capacity to share personal narratives and information from wide-ranging sources. Diverse content and innovative form distinguish a book that explores the places in which its author, Rose McLarney, finds herself as a woman from the mountain South—in history, national dialogues, public spaces, the natural world, and lineages that extend beyond an individual’s life on earth.

Rose McLarney’s collections of poems are Colorfast, Forage, Its Day Being Gone, and The Always Broken Plates of Mountains. She is coeditor of A Literary Field Guide to Southern Appalachia and the Southern Humanities Review. McLarney is Lanier Endowed Professor of Creative Writing at Auburn University.

Braulio Fonseca is a writer and educator, raised in the mountains of Western North Carolina. He is currently a PhD candidate in Creative Writing at Florida State University and serves as Managing Editor of The Southeast Review.
