A haiku workshop with David Hoppe
In addition to reading from his new collection of contemporary American haiku (Snapshot Lightning), author David Hoppe will also encourage participants to write their own haiku. He will discuss this artform and how it can become a part of anyone’s everyday life. Participants will then be invited to write haiku of their own.
David Hoppe’s writing explores the intersection of culture and community. His most recent book, Mondo POTUS, is a satirical novel that author Susan Neville called “a smart and hilarious tour-de-force.” Hoppe’s other books include Letters from Michiana, about life on Lake Michigan’s southern shore and Midcentury Boy, a memoir about growing up in a Chicago suburb during the 1950s and early ‘60s. His work for the stage includes, After Paul McCartney and Sacred Sands: A Play for Voices, an audio version of which has been installed at the Indiana Dunes National Park. Hoppe lives in Long Beach, IN.
