8pm, Music at
Irish Cultural Center: JAZZ DOUBLE BILL: Umbra and Sue Ryhardt Duo €10 (€7 for students and
unemployed people) reservation recommended Festival Jazzycolors Umbra Chris Guilfoyle (guitar), Chris Engel (soprano
saxophone), Sam Comerford (tenor
saxophone), Barry Donohue (bass
guitar), Matthew Jacobson (drums) With the energy and power of a
punk rock band and a broad range of influences, this five-piece jazz band from
Dublin stretch the boundaries of the form. Led by guitarist and composer Chris Guilfoyle, Umbra
features some of the most well-known jazz musicians in Dublin who find their
inspiration in the lush harmonic textures of John Hollenbeck and Jim McNeely or
the cyclical grooves of Meshuggah and Aphex Twin. Their music cleverly
integrates this smorgasbord of influences to distill a band sound that is
decidedly contemporary and indeed complex, but one which never loses sight of
the melody. Sue Rynhart Duo Sue Rynhart (vocals), Dan Bodwell (doublebass) Young
composer and singer Sue Rynhart has
performed at jazz festivals all over Ireland. Her collaborations with
well-known Irish and international artists range from premiering works by
George Higgs, Simon McHale, Donal Mac Erlaine or the Irish Composers Collective
to singing with Rick Peckham, Tom Arthurs and Florian Ross.Sue's
critically acclaimed debut album Crossings
was nominated Best Jazz Album in the Irish Times Ticket Awards 2014. AT: Centre Culturel Irlandais, 5 rue des Irlandais,

18
November 19h30 (WEDS NIGHT!) Korean-American Author Myung
Mi Kim reads for Ivy Writers Paris. She will read in English and new
translations (first translations!) of her work by Abigail Lang
will be presented in French. BIO: MYUNG MI KIM: b. 1957. Author
of 7 books of poetry, professor at Univ of Buffalo, NY, Myung Mi Kim is known
for her strong explorations of history, personal and political narratives in
fragmented space which open the page and the English language to the
othernesses in all of us. As CJ Martin states, she "explores the problem
of legibility: legibility of the book, of the subject, of the work of art.
Kim’s work seeks “a relationship with readers that owns to and remains critical
of the political and systematic nature of that encounter,” from books that
construct their own grammar to lyric speech that explores the problem of
silence to work that foregrounds practice as performance." (Jacket 2
sidebar intro) A large feature on her work, including criticism and a series of
interviews, appeared on Jacket 2: here is a link to one of those works: http://jacket2.org/feature/myung-mi-kim Myung Mi Kim is the subject
of the book The Subject of Building Is a Process / Light Is
an Element: essays and excursions for Myung Mi Kim (2008). She
has taught at San Francisco State University and in the Poetics Program at SUNY
Buffalo. Myung Mi Kim was born in
Seoul, Korea. She immigrated with her family to the United States at the age of
nine and was raised in the Midwest. She earned a BA from Oberlin College, an MA
from The Johns Hopkins University, and an MFA from the University of Iowa. Her
collection of poems Under Flag (1991) won the Multicultural
Publishers Exchange Award of Merit; subsequent collections include The Bounty (1996), DURA (1999), Commons (2002), River Antes (2006), and Penury (2009). To
read the full Poetry Foundation bio: http://www.poetryfoundation.org/bio/myung-mi-kim Her books:

the Vermont Poet Laureate, says of the book, "You will never again pass an
exit ramp in Vermont or elsewhere as once you did." For more

OUT NOW : for those interested in CRIME
WRITING and in FRENCH : check out this
issue : Parution du nouveau numéro d’Itinéraires. LTC N° 2014-3 Le polar en Europe : réécritures du genre Ce numéro privilégie les regards croisés pour aborder,
à travers le roman policier, les notions de genre (littéraires et sexués), les
questionnements sur l’élaboration d’une hiérarchie littéraire et sur la
fonction sociale du roman. Il démontre également l’enracinement du polar dans
le réel et la façon dont ses règles supposément restrictives offrent à l’auteur
dissident la possibilité de défier l’idéologie dominante, d’offrir à un public
complice, ou pas, une lecture séditieuse du monde, de son histoire et de nous
mettre face à nos propres préjugés et préconceptions. Ce numéro réunit donc des
universitaires français et britanniques, dans le but de favoriser un dialogue à
la fois multidisciplinaire et multinational, qui reflète les courants actuels
de la critique. Il comprend des articles sur le polar français ainsi que sur le
Krimi allemand des années 1940 et le roman policier anglais de
l’après-guerre, mais aussi sur la question toujours épineuse du statut du polar
dans la littérature.
