You Can’t Kill a Poet has been named Best Literary Event by PhillyMag in 2023!
“The success stems from host and curator Boston Gordon’s mission to bring together the best queer and trans writers from the Philadelphia area — and from the fact that these readings are often visceral, incisive and funny, all meant to bring you a little closer to the city’s literary community.”
