Last month, Laura Kasischke’s Space, in Chains was selected as the first winner of the University of North Texas’ brand-new Rilke Prize. Last night, her poetry collection won the National Book Critics Circle’ Award as well. Kasischke, who teaches at the University of Michigan, will be giving a reading at UNT April 19 as part of her Rilke duties, and another at the Dallas Institute of Humanities and Culture April 20.
