SUMMARY:Skylight Books presents Live on Crowdcast: Heidi Seaborn with Kelli Russell Agodon
DESCRIPTION:Skylight Books presents Live on Crowdcast: Heidi Seaborn discusses An Insomniac’s Slumber Party with Marilyn Monroe with Kelli Russell Agodon on July 1\, 2021 at 6:30 p.m. (PDT). \nFrom the organizers: \nHeidi Seaborn’s astonishing second collection of poems\, An Insomniac’s Slumber Party with Marilyn Monroe is a middle-of-the-night poetic conversation with Marilyn Monroe that explores obsessions\, addictions\, abuse\, objectification\, marriage\, work\, children\, childlessness and death. Pressing on the themes of her acclaimed debut\, Give a Girl Chaos {see what she can do}\, Seaborn illuminates the biographical and emotional journey of Marilyn as intimacies whispered between two women. These are women who have lived “on the glittering edge” and know that when a third husband “draws a blank page from his typewriter\,” it means she needs to go to work in a world dominated by men. In An Insomniac’s Slumber Party with Marilyn Monroe\, Marilyn is a resilient\, intelligent feminist who understands how to accumulate and wield power in the 1950’s. She is also vulnerable\, exploited\, and broken in so many ways. We see the speaker discover Marilyn until “then she is everywhere\,” a haunting presence that becomes both muse and reflection. Seaborn invites us into the poetic soul of the world’s most famous woman with poems that celebrate and mourn. An Insomniac’s Slumber Party with Marilyn Monroe is a sequined meditation on what keeps us up at night and what fills our dreams. \nHeidi Seaborn is the author of [PANK] 2020 Poetry Award winner An Insomniac’s Slumber Party with Marilyn Monroe (2021)\, Give a Girl Chaos (C&R Press\, 2019) and the 2020 Comstock Review Prize Chapbook\, Bite Marks\, as well as chapbooks\, Finding My Way Home and Once a Diva. Since Heidi started writing in 2016\, she’s won or been shortlisted for over two dozen awards. Her work has recently appeared in American Poetry Journal\, Beloit Poetry Journal\, Copper Nickel\, The Cortland Review\, The Greensboro Review\, The Missouri Review\, The Slowdown with Tracy K. Smith\, Tinderbox Poetry Journal and elsewhere. She is Executive Editor of The Adroit Journal and holds an MFA in Poetry from NYU. \nKelli Russell Agodon’s newest book is Dialogues with Rising Tides from Copper Canyon Press. She is the author of four collections of poems\, two books of poetry prompts\, and she co-edited the first eBook anthology of women’s poetry\, Fire on Her Tongue. Kelli is the cofounder of Two Sylvias Press where she works as an editor and book cover designer as well as the Co-Director of Poets on the Coast: A Weekend Retreat for Women. She lives in a sleepy seaside town in Washington State on traditional lands of the Chimacum\, Coast Salish\, S’Klallam\, and Suquamish people where she is an avid paddleboarder and hiker. She teaches at Pacific Lutheran University’s low-res MFA program\, the Rainier Writing Workshop. \nDialogues with Rising Tides (Copper Canyon Press) \nIn Kelli Russell Agodon’s fourth collection\, each poem facilitates a humane and honest conversation with the forces that threaten to take us under. The anxieties and heartbreaks of life―including environmental collapse\, cruel politics\, and the persistent specter of suicide―are met with emotional vulnerability and darkly sparkling humor. Dialogues with Rising Tides does not answer\, This or that? It passionately exclaims\, And also! Even in the midst of great difficulty\, radiant wonders are illuminated at every turn. \n

SUMMARY:Ledbury Poetry Festival presents Valzhyna Mort and Victoria Chang\, chaired by Neil Astley
DESCRIPTION:Ledbury Poetry Festival presents Valzhyna Mort and Victoria Chang\, chaired by Neil Astley\, on July 2\, 2021 from 6 to 7 p.m. (BST); 10 to 11 a.m. (PDT); noon to 1 p.m. (CDT); 1 to 2 p.m. (EDT). \nFrom the organizers: \nAfter her mother died\, poet Victoria Chang refused to write elegies. Rather\, she distilled her grief during a feverish two weeks by writing scores of poetic obituaries for all she lost in the world. In Obit\, longlisted for the 2020 National Book Award in Poetry\, Chang writes of “the way memory gets up after someone has died and starts walking.” These poems reinvent the form of newspaper obituary to both name what has died (“civility\,” “language\,” “the future\,” “Mother’s blue dress”) and the cultural impact of death on the living. \nIn her book of letters to the dead\, the prize-winning poet Valzhyna Mort relearns how to mourn those erased by violent history. With shocking\, unforgettable lyric force\, Valzhyna Mort’s Music for the Dead and Resurrected confronts the legacy of violent death in one family in Belarus. In these letters to the dead\, the poet asks: How do we mourn after a century of propaganda? Can private stories challenge the collective power of Soviet and American historical mythology? \nRegister here: https://www.poetry-festival.co.uk/events/valzhyna-mort-and-victoria-chang/

SUMMARY:West Cork Literary Festival presents Experiments in Empathy: Ellen Bass & Tom Moore
DESCRIPTION:West Cork Literary Festival presents Experiments in Empathy: Ellen Bass & Tom Moore\, on July 15 at 8 p.m. (GMT+1) (12 p.m. PDT). \nFrom the organizers: \nBut sometimes it’s too much to ask a person to inhabit the strange region of a foreign heart\n–‘Experiment in Empathy’ by Ellen Bass\, from Indigo (2020) \nLater that afternoon\, lonely and bored\, you thought you’d found the sweetness in humankind\n—‘Lab Rat’ by Tom Moore\, from Brother Adam (2020) \nPoetry has long been the bedfellow of beauty\, but how do the author and reader enter the world of the rat\, the tumour\, the criminal? In a society that has kept acutely separate this past year\, how does poetry narrow the gap between what we know and what we don’t? What does death feel like to the oyster\, desire to the celibate\, teeth to the apple? \nJoin us for this exploration of empathy\, nature and science with poets Ellen Bass\, Tom Moore and editor and criminologist\, Sarah Byrne. Ellen and Tom will read from their respective 2020 collections\, Indigo (Copper Canyon Press) and Brother Adam (Well Review Editions). \nRegister here: https://www.westcorkmusic.ie/events/2021/experiments-in-empathy-ellen-bass-tom-moore/

SUMMARY:Fine Arts Work Center in Provincetown presents Vision & Revision: A Poetry Workshop - LIVE with Erin Belieu
DESCRIPTION:Fine Arts Work Center in Province Town\, July 19 to July 23 at 10 AM – 12 PM EDT\, presents Vision & Revision: A Poetry Workshop – LIVE with Erin Belieu \nFrom the organizers: \nIn this workshop\, you will decide if you’re more interested in generating new work or in sharing previously drafted work with the group (or some combination of both). I will bring in poems every day as models of various craft elements for our consideration\, and I will conclude each class by offering you a generative exercise that you may wish to work on throughout your time at the conference. It’s entirely your choice. Because no one size fits all\, my goal is to meet you where you’re presently at with your poetic process\, and to offer you the craft skills to keep you generating and revising your poems on your own\, outside of a workshop atmosphere. \nRegister here: https://fawc.org/24-pearlstreet-payment/?nid=4641
