SUMMARY:Hard-Earned Wisdom: Two Poets on Small Ecstasies & Difficult Loves
DESCRIPTION:In The Impossible: Poems\, Deborah DeNicola explores landscapes of her own passion\, her mother’s decline\, and her father’s life\, death\, and imagined afterlife with hard-earned wisdom\, transforming the personal into something beyond universal – the possibility that each life\, encompassing its own suffering\, questing\, and small ecstasies\, is really a stage toward a greater “becoming.” Barbra Nightingale is full of vulnerability\, smarts\, and sometimes hilarity in Spells & Other Ways of Flying: Poems. She brings her witchy poetry powers to poems of both difficult and wonderful loves\, tracing various angers and honoring the emotional landscape of the heart. \nSponsored by

SUMMARY:Three Poets on Hurricanes\, History & the Converse MFA
DESCRIPTION:When her Florida apartment is damaged by the ferocity of Hurricane Irma\, Denise Duhamel turns to Dante and terza rima\, reconstructing the form into the long poem “Terza Irma.” Throughout her new poetry collection\, Second Story: Poems\, she investigates our near-catastrophic ecological and political moment\, hyper aware of her own complicity\, resistance\, and agency. With fear of the water below and a burglar who enters through her second story window\, she bravely faces the story under the story\, the second story we often neglect to tell. In formal and nontraditional poems\, Ashley M. Jones calls for long-overdue reparations to the Black descendants of enslaved people in the United States. In Reparations Now!\, she takes on the worst of today – state-sanctioned violence\, pandemic-induced crises\, and white silence – all while uplifting Black joy. In In All These Hungers: Poems\, Rick Mulkey turns on his hungers\, turns Rimbaud into something American\, small town scrappy\, transparent and musky: these poems land on the tongue and in the brain and center on the stomach. Whisky\, beans\, peppered pork belly bacon\, lemonade\, unclean scrambled eggs\, very cold sweet tea\, onions\, beets\, tomatoes\, wine – these Rabelaisian poems have a nose for the ground that smells “like dusty clocks.” \nSponsored by

SUMMARY:Loaded Terms: Poets on Identity & Truth
DESCRIPTION:In Extremely Lightweight Guns: Poems\, Nikki Moustaki explores femininity in contexts that grapple with violence\, mental illness\, loss\, love\, and relationships. She probes these themes through various provocative narratives\, settings\, and forms\, from prose to diary-like entries. In her debut collection Tortillera: Poems\, Caridad Moro-Gronlier not only applies the homophobic Spanish-language term for lesbians to herself\, she owns it\, drapes it over her shoulders and heralds her truth through candid\, unflinching poems that address the queer experience of coming out while Cuban. Moderated by Richard Blanco\, author of How to Love a Country. \nSponsored by

SUMMARY:2020 National Poetry Series Winner Trevor Ketner
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 Trevor Ketner on [WHITE]\, in conversation with the judge who selected their manuscript\, Forrest Gander\, Twice Alive. [WHITE] is a book born from obsessions – Rauschenberg’s art and tarot – laying them over one another to tease out a critique of whiteness in the arts that reflects on how we think of whiteness in America. Here is an examination of queer bodies\, Rauschenberg traveling toward\, through\, and away from infamous lovers in pursuit of art and selfhood\, while Ketner exposes the insidiousness of whiteness and its inescapable role in American history and art. With a special introduction by Daniel Halpern\, founder of HarperCollins imprint Ecco and the National Poetry Series. \nSponsored by

SUMMARY:FSG Celebrates 75 Years of Poetry: Frank Bidart & Yusef Komunyakaa
DESCRIPTION:In Against Silence: Poems\, Frank Bidart writes of the cycles we cannot escape and the feelings we cannot forget. Our history is not a tabula rasa\, but a repeating\, refining story of love and hate\, of words spoken and cruelties enacted. Moving among the dead and the living\, the figures of his life and of his past\, Bidart calls forth – with nothing settled and nothing forgotten\, we must speak. Everyday Mojo Songs of Earth: New and Selected Poems\, 2001-2021 brings together selected poems from the past 20 years of Yusef Komunyakaa’s work\, as well as new poems from the Pulitzer Prize winner. Komunyakaa’s masterful\, concise verse conjures arresting images of peace and war\, the natural power of the earth and of love\, his childhood in the American South and his service in Vietnam\, the ugly violence of racism in America\, and the meaning of power and morality. Moderated by Jonathan Galassi\, president of Farrar\, Straus and Giroux and editor of The FSG Poetry Anthology (75th Anniversary). \nSponsored by

SUMMARY:A New Reckoning: Two Graywolf Poets on Spirituality\, Survival\, & the Second Book
DESCRIPTION:The Renunciations: Poems is a book of resilience\, survival\, and the journey to radically shift one’s sense of self in the face of trauma. Moving between a childhood marked by love and abuse and the breaking marriage of that adult child\, Donika Kelly charts memory and the body as landscapes to be traversed and tended. These poems construct life rafts and sanctuaries even in their most devastating confrontations with what a person can bear\, with how families harm themselves. In Yellow Rain: Poems\, Mai Der Vang reopens a wrongdoing that deserves a new reckoning. As the United States abandoned them at the end of its war in Vietnam\, many Hmong refugees recounted stories of a mysterious substance that fell from planes during their escape from Laos starting in the mid-1970s. This substance\, known as “yellow rain\,” caused severe illnesses and thousands of deaths. Integrating archival research and declassified documents\, Yellow Rain calls out the erasure of a history\, the silencing of a people who at the time lacked the capacity and resources to defend and represent themselves. In poems that sing and lament\, that contend and question\, Vang restores a vital narrative in danger of being lost\, and brilliantly explores what it means to have access to the truth and how marginalized groups are often forbidden that access. Moderated by Carlene Sawyer\, executive director of the Dranoff 2 Piano Foundation. \nSponsored by                                                                                               \n \n  \n  \nIn partnership with

SUMMARY:2020 National Poetry Series Winner W.J. Herbert
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.

Juxtaposing a profound sense of intimacy with the vastness of geological time\, Dear Specimen is an extended love letter from a dying parent to her daughter\, offering a climate-conscious critique of the human species – our search for meaning and intimacy\, and our capacity for greed and destruction. With a special introduction by Daniel Halpern\, founder of HarperCollins imprint Ecco and the National Poetry Series. \nSponsored by
