鈥� 3 p.m. 鈥� Literary Editing Conversation/Q&A, Kegel Liberal Arts Building, Room 256

鈥�   6 p.m. 鈥� Public Reading, Bengal Caf茅, Pond Student Union                     

A 2018 Junior Library Guild selection, 鈥淏eep: Inside the Unseen World of Baseball for the Blind,鈥� explores the history and the present state of an adaptive sport with an increasingly global reach, and tracks in detail the fortunes of teams and individual players competing intensely in the pursuit of a complex range of athletic, psychological and social ambitions.

In the 鈥淟.A Review of Books,鈥� Joshua Jackson describes 鈥淏eep鈥� as 鈥渁 work of sports reportage. . .but also some fine travel writing, a history of the relatively new game, an exploration of an underrepresented culture, and even a memoir. [Wanczyk] gives beep its due respect as a sport, and he reveals its heroes and goats not only as athletes, but as humans.鈥�       

Wanczyk holds a Ph.D. in creative nonfiction from Ohio University. He has written extensively on novel sports for publications such as 鈥淪alon鈥� and 鈥淪late.鈥� He has also contributed essays, poems and criticism to venues as diverse as Woolf Studies Annual and the food journal Alimentum. He is the editor of New Ohio Review and director of special programs for the English department at Ohio University, where he presently teaches.

Wanczyk鈥檚 visit is made possible by support from the Idaho Humanities Council, ISU鈥檚 Department of English and Philosophy, ISU鈥檚 Disability Services, ISU鈥檚 Diversity Resource Center and Black Rock & Sage.
