The Literature and Theatre Department invites you to a reading of Prof. Adams’ forthcoming new work: “The Lovely, Lovely Gatebox”, on Wednesday, April 2nd, 19:30 at Panitza Library.
“The Lovely, Lovely Gatebox” was originally published in Apricity, the official literary and arts magazine of the University of Texas at Austin. From there it was selected for inclusion in their 2025 volume IX print anthology. “Gatebox” is a love story: the familial relationship between a mother and her son, and the son’s relationship with his AI girlfriend.
