SUMMARY:Rain Taxi presents Rita Dove in conversation with Jericho Brown
DESCRIPTION:Rain Taxi presents Rita Dove in conversation with Jericho Brown on August 3 at 5:30 p.m. Central time via Crowdcast. \nFrom the organizers: \nIn her first book of new poems in twelve years\, acclaimed poet Rita Dove investigates the vacillating moral compass guiding America’s\, and the world’s\, experiments in democracy. Deftly connecting history’s grand exploits to the triumphs and tragedies of individual lives—a trademark of the writer the Boston Globe has called “perhaps the best public poet we have”—and alternating poignant meditations on mortality with acerbic observations of injustice\, Playlist for the Apocalypse (Norton) takes us from the smallest moments of redemption to apocalyptic failures of the human soul. Join us as we celebrate the launch of this remarkable new book by one of the greatest poets of the era. Rita Dove will be in conversation with Pulitzer Prize-winning poet Jericho Brown. \nFree to attend\, registration required. We hope to “see” you there! \nAbout the Authors: \nRita Dove\, a former U.S. Poet Laureate\, is the only poet honored with both the National Humanities Medal and the National Medal of Arts. Her recent works include 2010’s Sonata Mulattica and the National Book Award–shortlisted Collected Poems: 1974–2004. Her many awards include the Pulitzer Prize\, an NAACP Image Award\, the Wallace Stevens Award\, and the Hurston/Wright Legacy Award; in 2021 she was awarded the Gold Medal for Poetry from the American Academy of Arts and Letters. She lives in Charlottesville\, where she teaches creative writing at the University of Virginia. \nJericho Brown is author of the The Tradition (Copper Canyon\, 2019)\, for which he won the Pulitzer Prize. His previous books Please (New Issues\, 2008) and The New Testament (Copper Canyon\, 2014)\, won the American Book Award and the Anisfield-Wolf Book Award respectively; in addition to the Pulitzer\, The Tradition won the Paterson Poetry Prize and was a finalist for the National Book Award and the National Book Critics Circle Award.

SUMMARY:Brooklyn Poets presents Craft Lab: Nonsense and Senselessness with Jericho Brown
DESCRIPTION:Brooklyn Poets presents Nonsense and Senselessness\, a Craft Lab with Jericho Brown\, on August 15 from 4 to 7 p.m. EDT online via Zoom. \nFrom the organizers: \nFormer Poet Laureate Rita Dove says that “poetry is language at its most distilled and most powerful.” Yet many readers still struggle to understand the meanings of poems. In this craft lab\, we’ll dive into what’s going on when we read a poem and think\, “That doesn’t make sense.” Looking at examples of sense and nonsense in the work of several poets\, we’ll explore the different techniques poets use to balance meaning and mystery\, and we’ll generate new work together through a set of unconventional exercises\, drawing on the themes of sense and nonsense\, engendering new ideas about writing. As there is a profound relationship between reading poetry and writing it\, together we’ll read\, discuss\, and even recite the work of several poets whose examples might lead us to a further honing of our craft. \nAll participants will have access to a cloud recording of the craft lab for one month afterward. \nCraft Lab Details \n\nProfessor: Jericho Brown\nDate: Sunday\, August 15\nTime: 4–7 PM (EDT)\nLocation: online via Zoom\nCost: $125\nEarlybird discount: $15 off through SUN\, AUGUST 8\nDeadline for financial aid: FRI\, AUGUST 13\n\nJericho Brown is the recipient of a Whiting Writers’ Award and fellowships from the John Simon Guggenheim Foundation\, the Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study at Harvard University\, and the National Endowment for the Arts. Brown’s first book\, Please (2008)\, won the American Book Award. His second book\, The New Testament (2014)\, won the Anisfield-Wolf Book Award and was named one of the best of the year by Library Journal\, Coldfront\, and the Academy of American Poets. He is also the author of the collection The Tradition (2019)\, which was a finalist for the 2019 National Book Award and the winner of the 2020 Pulitzer Prize for Poetry. His poems have appeared in BuzzFeed\, the Nation\, New York Times\, New Yorker\, New Republic\, Time\, the Pushcart Prize Anthology\, and several volumes of the Best American Poetry anthologies.
