From the Beat movement and City Lights to McSweeney's, San Francisco has been shaped by its literary history. But this history does not simply lie in the texts produced by the writers—it was also a history produced in the city's fabric, in literary movements that defined and influenced people and place. Join us in exploring the role of literature in shaping our local cultural understanding of Urbanism and policy-making. The ºÚÁÏ´«ËÍÃÅYoung Urbanists welcome writer of the San Francisco Writer's Grotto and editor of , writer and City Lights editor , Filipino American poet and professor and poet , the forum moderator, for an evening that explores [Literature] in the City.
