BOOK READING

An evening of poetry with Fady Joudah

16 October 2026, 7pm
Writer Fady Joudah will present his new publication, Exhibit G, followed by a conversation with poet Zena Agha.

Exhibit G (Out-Spoken Press, 2026) is a collection of poems, essays and photographs that offers a Palestinian representation of the visual evidence and the written account in a time of genocide. A book that depends on the labor of a Palestinian collective.

Fady Joudah writes from the split perspective of a Palestinian American physician caring for the sick while watching the destruction of Gaza from the United States, a nation leading the Western complicity in the Israeli genocide. 

Exhibit G has been longlisted for the National Book Awards 2026 for Poetry.
