SUMMARY:In Conversation: On The Mad Women’s Ball: A Novel & Mrs. March: A Novel
DESCRIPTION:In Victoria Mas’ The Mad Women’s Ball: A Novel\, the dazzling displays of hypnotism on women who have been deemed mad and cast from society in 1885 Paris’ Salpêtrière Asylum hide a wicked truth – these women are not sick\, just inconvenient. Among them is 19-year-old protagonist Eugenie\, who is determined to escape from the asylum and the bonds of her gender. In Virginia Feito’s Mrs. March: A Novel – part Hitchcockian psychological thriller\, part social satire – the title character is the proper\, dutiful wife of a successful novelist and proud of his success.

Moderated by Sandra M. Gilbert and Susan Gubar\, authors of Still Mad: American Women Writers and the Feminist Imagination.

SUMMARY:A South Beach Documentary: “Abraham's Bakery”
DESCRIPTION:Aaron Davidson’s documentary films on Jewish themes have all been created in South Florida\, but transcend their local flavor and are at once familiar and nostalgic. A hallmark of his work is a periodic update of his films\, often with poignant\, ironic\, or unexpected results\, as films made innocently more than a decade ago in an earlier context take on new and added meaning with contemporary footage. “Abraham’s Bakery” is one of three films being screened for Miami Book Fair that amazingly span 13 years – a significant milestone\, as the films are now Bar Mitzvah age.   \nAbraham’s Bakery \nAbraham’s Kosher Bakery was a Miami Beach landmark for more than 30 years and one of the last old-fashioned bakeries of its kind. The film lovingly follows the process of making kosher favorites\, and along the way shares the stories of some of the bakers and patrons. Various updates since the original film was made explore the continued journey of the bakery and its location.

Davidson was there to capture the essence of this classic restaurant on its last day as patrons came to reminisce at this stalwart landmark. The filmmaker has returned to this location over the years for several surprising updates of what happened after its closing.

In this documentary\, we visit one of the oldest surviving and the last stand-alone kosher butcher shop on Miami Beach to find out why customers keep coming back – and why a butcher is more than just a store. The film was initially made when the butcher moved to a new location to attract new customers and keep old ones.

SUMMARY:Our Brief & Earthly Inheritance: Two Poets on the Art of Making Do
DESCRIPTION:The poems in Jim Daniels’ Gun/Shy deal with the emotional weight of making do. Tinged with both the regrets and wisdom of aging\, his poems measure the wages of love in a changing world with its vanishing currency. He finds solace in small miracles\, exploring family work\, childhood and adolescence\, and his own mortality. He examines race\, white privilege\, America’s gun culture\, and factory work\, the myths we memorize to help us sleep at night\, those that keep us awake and trembling. In The Mica Mine\, Michael Hettich celebrates the unspoken dialogues of the natural world with linguistic dexterity and fierce transformative details. The human and animal realms interact with the vines and ponds of the untamed world\, until they are a blended whole\, reminding us of our brief and earthly inheritance. Moderated by poet Elisa Albo\, South Florida Poetry Journal. \nSponsored by                                                                                               \n \n  \n  \nIn partnership with

SUMMARY:In Conversation: Pablo Medina & Achy Obejas
DESCRIPTION:In his collection The Foreigner’s Song: New and Selected Poems\, Cuban-born American poet Pablo Medina reaches back to his six previous published collections and all the way to his first\, published in 1975\, adding 19 new works.

Moderated by poet Alexandra Lytton Regalado of Supporting Women Writers in Miami (SWWIM). \nSponsored by                                                                                               \n \n  \n  \nIn partnership with

SUMMARY:2020 National Poetry series Winner Devon Walker-Figueroa
DESCRIPTION:The National Poetry Series was established in 1978 to recognize and promote excellence in contemporary poetry by ensuring the publication of five books of poetry annually through participating publishers. In addition\, the National Poetry Series has partnered with Miami Book Fair to award the Paz Prize in Poetry\, which ensures bilingual publication for a book of poems written in Spanish. This conversation features Devon Walker-Figueroa on Philomath: Poems\, in conversation with the judge who selected her manuscript\, Sally Keith\, River House: Poems. An explorer at the edge of the sublime\, Devon Walker-Figueroa writes in quiet awe of nature\, of memory\, and of a beauty that is “merely existence carrying on and carrying on.” In her wanderings\, she guides readers toward a kind of witness that doesn’t flinch from the bleak or bizarre: A vineyard engulfed in flames is reclaimed by the fields. A sow smothers its young\, then bears more. A neighbor chews locusts in his yard. Philomath is a ruminative catalogue of overgrowth and the places that haunt us. With a special introduction by Daniel Halpern\, founder of HarperCollins imprint Ecco and the National Poetry Series. \nSponsored by

SUMMARY:2020 National Poetry Series Winner Teresa K. Miller
DESCRIPTION:The National Poetry Series was established in 1978 to recognize and promote excellence in contemporary poetry by ensuring the publication of five books of poetry annually through participating publishers. In addition\, the National Poetry Series has partnered with Miami Book Fair to award the Paz Prize in Poetry\, which ensures bilingual publication for a book of poems written in Spanish. This conversation features Teresa K. Miller on Borderline Fortune\, in conversation with the judge who selected her manuscript\, Carol Muske-Dukes\, Twin Cities. Borderline Fortune is a meditation on intangible family inheritance – of unresolved intergenerational conflicts and traumas in particular – set against the backdrop of our planetary inheritance as humans. As species go extinct and glaciers melt\, Miller asks what we owe one another and what it means to echo one’s ancestors’ grief and fear. Drawing on her family history\, from her great-grandfather’s experience as a schoolteacher on an island in the Bering Strait to her father’s untimely death\, as well as her pursuit of regenerative horticulture\, Miller seeks through these beautifully crafted poems to awaken from the intergenerational trance and bear witness to our current moment with clarity and attention. With a special introduction by Daniel Halpern\, founder of HarperCollins imprint Ecco and the National Poetry Series. \nSponsored by                                                                                               \n \n
