an event by Phoenix Books
Saturday, September 13, 2025 – 7:00 pm, 152 Pearl Street, Burlington, Vermont.
Phoenix Books is excited to host Saeed Jones and Maggie Smith for a discussion moderated by Alexander Chee to celebrate their new book, The People’s Project!
Inspired by Saeed Jones and Maggie Smith’s conversations in the wake of the 2024 election, the book is a collection of poems, essays, and visual art on what we—individually and collectively—can hold onto, and what we can work towards.
