Watch Lynn Melnick Read Her Poems from ‘A Shadow Map’

Watch Lynn Melnick Read Her Poems from ‘A Shadow Map’

#CopingWith is CCM’s interview series run by managing editor Joanna C. Valente


Lynn Melnick is one of our contributors in “A Shadow Map,” which came out on February 22, 2017 from CCM. The essays and poems contained within this anthology are not only compelling but also harrowing stories of sexual assault. None of these pieces were easy to write–and were born out of traumatizing and terrible experiences. CCM believes in providing a safe space within the literary community where we can not only talk about painful experiences and issues but also necessary considering the current political climate.

Watch Lynn read her poems below. Don’t forget to read her full interview here.

Lynn Melnick is the author of Landscape with Sex and Violence (forthcoming, 2017) and If I Should Say I Have Hope (2012), both with YesYes Books, and the co-editor of Please Excuse This Poem: 100 New Poets for the Next Generation (Viking, 2015). She serves on the Executive Board of VIDA: Women in Literary Arts.
