Kelly Writers House Fellows 2011: some images from performances of "Seascape"

read & listen to some praise

Adrienne Rich praises the students in the Fellows seminar: mp3. And, while you're at it, listen to Susan Sontag's compliments to the people of the Writers House: mp3.

"I had a wonderful time at Writers House. Among its other virtues, it was the first academic setting I can remember that felt entirely stimulating and generous and, well, un-creepy; the first about which I've felt I'd like to be some sort of part some time in the future." —Michael Cunningham, the winner of the Pulitzer Prize for The Hours and a Writers House Fellow in 2002.

"Thank you so much. I've really been incredibly impressed with the faculty and the students I've met here. In many many years of doing this, this has been the nicest two days I've spent on the road. It's really been a great and wonderful thing."—Tony Kushner, playwright and 2001 Writers House Fellow

"I have never ever experienced such a loving and caring poetry group. You have done miracles at the Writers House."—Susan Howe, after her visit as a Writers House Fellow, March 2010

Although Marjorie Perloff has never been a Fellow, this is what she told us a few years ago: "I want to support the Kelly Writers House—of all places in the U.S.—because I think it is the most exciting, balanced, serious, productive and just plain energetic literary project."
