SUMMARY:The Manchester Literature Festival presents Jericho Brown\, Rachel Long\, Raymond Antrobus & Safiya Sinclair
DESCRIPTION:From the organizers:  \nMLF and Picador present four stunning\, innovative poets whose work speaks to the times we are living in. Jericho Brown’s Pulitzer Prize winning collection The Tradition considers the normalisation of evil and explores masculinity\, fatherhood and freedom. It also introduces the duplex\, a new poetic form. Rachel Long’s superb debut My Darling from the Lions\, shortlisted for the Forward Prize for Best First Collection\, examines relationships between a mother and her daughter\, between friends\, between lovers; considering the legacy of girlhood. Jamaican poet Safiya Sinclair’s incredible debut Cannibal uses The Tempest to frame explorations of colonialism and its legacy\, womanhood\, otherness and exile. The collection won numerous awards on publication in the USA\, including the American Academy of Arts and Letters Addison M. Metcalf Award and the Prairie Schooner Book Prize in Poetry. British-Jamaican and D/deaf poet Raymond Antrobus’ first collection The Perseverance won The Ted Hughes Award\, The Rathbones Folio Prize and the Young Writer of the Year Award. New to the Picador list\, Raymond will showcase forthcoming material. \nPresented in partnership with Picador and hosted by Scottish Makar and MLF Patron Jackie Kay. \nApproximate running time 75 minutes \nThis event will be available for ticket holders to watch for 72 hours after the streamed broadcast. \nTickets for this event are available for FREE or on a Pay What You Can £6 / £12 / £20 basis. \nPlease pay £6 (low income / concessionary rate)\, £12 (standard ticket price) or £20 (if you are watching at home with another member of your household) if you are able to. Any ticket revenue we receive will help Manchester Literature Festival survive these challenging times and hopefully bounce back with a live festival in 2021. However\, if you can’t afford to buy a ticket please do join us for free.

SUMMARY:UNC Chapel Hill presents Tyree Daye’s Cardinal: A Virtual Book Launch with Special Guest Nabila Lovelace
DESCRIPTION:From the organizers:  \nPlease join us in a virtual book launch for Tyree Daye’s second collection Cardinal\, from Copper Canyon Press\, featuring the poet Nabila Lovelace. Tyree Daye’s Cardinal is a generous atlas that serves as a poetic “Green Book”—the travel-cum-survival guide for black motorists negotiating racist America in the mid-twentieth century. Interspersed with images of Daye’s family and upbringing\, which have been deliberately blurred\, it also serves as an imperfect family album. Cardinal traces the South’s burdened interiors and the interiors of a black male protagonist attempting to navigate his many departures and returns home—a place that could both lovingly rear him and coolly annihilate him. With the language of elegy and praise\, intoning regional dialect\, and a deliberately disruptive cadence\, Daye carries the voices of ancestors and blues poets\, while stretching the established zones of the black American vernacular. In tones at once laden and magically transforming\, he self-consciously plots his own Great Migration: “if you see me dancing a two step/I’m sending a starless code/we’re escaping everywhere.” These are poems to be read aloud.  \nRegister here. \n
