City Lights celebrates the Second Stutter annual release party hosted by Solomon Rino with readings by George Albon, Laura Moriarty, Joseph Lease, and Norma Cole.
Second Stutter is a San Francisco based literary journal that publishes annually. It's focus is on contemporary English language poetry and translation.

The editions are limited and largely distributed through readings, university lectures, and other poets.
