Belladonna* chaplets are short, raw works (often works-in-progress) by authors who appear in our reading series. These ephemeral, immediate works give insight into a writer’s process and timely concerns. Chaplets have attended Belladonna* readings since the series began in 1999 at Bluestockings Bookstore in New York, New York. The collection, which has grown to over 200 titles, represents a kind of pantheon of radical feminist letters.
Rebecca Brown’s diverse oeuvre contains collections of essays and short stories, a fictionalized autobiography, a modern bestiary, a memoir in the guise of a medical dictionary, a libretto for a dance opera, a play, and various kinds of fantasy.
