New Works: Sophie Cabot Black and Marie Howe
2024-10-02 19:00 - 21:00 (America/New_York) | Poets House, 10 River Terrace, New York, NY, 10282, United States
From the organizers:
Experience the newest poetry collections from Sophie Cabot Black and Marie Howe through poems that capture visions of the pastoral and glimpses of the quotidian. In Cabot Black’s Geometry of the Restless Herd (Copper Canyon, 2024), poems about sheep herding examine the connection between people, land, animals, and power. Howe’s New and Selected Poems (W.W. Norton, 2024), collates poems from her four previous collections, creating a sweeping and intimate portrait of her body of work. The evening’s readings and conversation between the artists will reveal two extraordinary takes on the human and the spiritual.
Readings in Kray Hall with a reception to follow in the Viscusi Reading Room.
