The East Side Freedom Library invites you to a special reading by:
Danny Klecko, master bread-baker and poet
HITMAN-BAKER-CASKETMAKER:
AFTERMATH OF AN AMERICAN’S CLASH WITH ICE
Saturday, April 13, 1PM
In his compelling new book of poetry, Hitman-Baker-Casketmaker: Aftermath of an American’s Clash with ICE, Klecko, St. Paul’s master bread-baker, reveals the circumstances behind the 2018 demise of St. Agnes Baking Company. He writes not of financial loss, but of the emotional fall-out of disbanding the bakery’s loyal and talented crew, most of whom are immigrants.
Since its early March release, the book has been receiving both local and national attention. Klecko will read some of his poems and talk about how much it means to him to continue to stand up and speak up for those who don’t have a voice.
Copies of the book will be available for sale from SubText Books.
