Join us for the book launch of Rogue Astronaut by Mitchell Jacobs. The author will be joined by Darren Donate, Maxwell Suzuki, and Jorrell Watkins for a poetry reading in The Wanda Coleman Theater. Reception & book signings to follow. Finalist for the 2026 Miller Williams Poetry Prize, at the core of Rogue Astronaut, Mitchell Jacobs’s debut poetry collection, is a mystery: Was the poet’s father abducted by aliens as a teenager? From this uncanny family lore spins a gravitational field of theory, grief, and imagination.
