SUMMARY:“Restlessness\, Reflection & Revolution”: Dana Levin\, Jana Prikryl & Jenny Xie
DESCRIPTION:Dana Levin’s Now Do You Know Where You Are investigates how great change calls the soul out of the old lyric\, working in a variety of forms\, calling on beloveds and ancestors\, great thinkers and religions – convened by her own spun-of-light wisdom and intellectual hospitality. In Midwood: Poems\, Jana Prikryl probes the notion of midlife\, when past and future blur in the equidistance\, balancing formal innovation with deeply personal reflections on love and sex and marriage and motherhood in new language for confronting our present moment. In polyphonic and formally restless sequences\, The Rupture Tense: Poems by Jenny Xie cracks open reverberant\, vexed experiences of diasporic homecoming intergenerational memory transfer\, state-enforced amnesia\, public secrecies\, and the psychic fallout of the Chinese Cultural Revolution. Moderated by Carlene Sawyer\, Executive Director of the Dranoff 2 Piano Foundation. \nIn partnership with

SUMMARY:Tom Mustill\, Priyanka Kumar & Sy Montgomery: A Conversation
DESCRIPTION:After surviving a humpback whale crashing into his kayak\, Tom Mustill turned to his experience as a naturalist and wildlife filmmaker to investigate human-whale interactions around the world. And in How to Speak Whale: A Voyage into the Future of Animal Communication\, he examines how artificial intelligence – originally designed to translate human languages – is being used to discover and decode patterns in animal communications. After moving from northern India to North America as a teenager\, author and filmmaker Priyanka Kumar became increasingly distanced from the natural world she once took for granted. She rediscovered her place in the landscape by watching birds\, a connection captured in a collection of essays in Conversations with Birds. In her stories\, birds “become a portal to a more vivid\, enchanted world.” In The Hawk’s Way: Encounters with Fierce Beauty\, Sy Montgomery reveals the wondrous world of these birds and what they can teach us about nature\, life\, and love. These are no pets but fierce predators\, deeply emotional\, quick to anger and frustration\, and capable of holding a grudge for years – but they are also intensely loyal.

SUMMARY:Dan Wakefield on Kurt Vonnegut: The Making of a Writer: Young Adult Fiction
DESCRIPTION:This first and only YA biography of the great American novelist and humanist comes out on the 100th anniversary of his birth. Kurt Vonnegut\, author of Slaughterhouse Five\, Breakfast of Champions\, Cat’s Cradle\, and many other brilliant novels and short stories\, is one of our greatest American writers. Born in 1922\, Vonnegut’s life was full of great fortune and great despair: his family was wealthy\, but lost everything in the market crash of 1929; he was the youngest son in a loving family\, until his mother fell into a depression and committed suicide; he joined the army in WWII with great pride for our country\, but experienced instead a world of destruction and horror. How did he channel the highs and lows of his life into great writing? Dan Wakefield\, a friend and mentee of Vonnegut’s for decades\, distills the facts – including Vonnegut’s novels\, essays\, interviews\, letters\, and personal experiences – into a beautiful telling of the making of a writer. It is as though Wakefield is a friend walking through Vonnegut’s life alongside him\, a guide for readers to his extraordinary life. Here is a burgeoning artist’s life to inspire anyone who has read Vonnegut’s work or who themselves aspire to write. Moderated by Ellen Book\, branch manager with the Miami-Dade Public Library System. Grades 9-12 \nIn partnership with

SUMMARY:Maya Abu Al-Hayyat on You Can Be the Last Leaf: Selected Poems
DESCRIPTION:Translated from the Arabic and introduced by Fady Joudah\, You Can Be the Last Leaf: Selected Poems draws on two decades of work to present the transcendent and timely US debut of Palestinian poet Maya Abu Al-Hayyat. Art. Garlic. Taxis. Sleepy soldiers at checkpoints. The smell of trash on a winter street\, before “our wild rosebush\, neglected / by the gate\, / blooms.” Lovers who don’t return\, the possibility that you yourself might not return. Making beds. Cleaning up vomit. Reading recipes. In You Can Be the Last Leaf\, these are the ordinary and profound – sometimes tragic\, sometimes dreamy\, sometimes almost frivolous – moments of life under Israeli occupation. Abu Al-Hayyat has created a richly textured portrait of Palestinian interiority – at once wry and romantic\, worried and tenacious\, and always singing itself. Moderated by author Lena Khalaf Tuffaha. \nThis is a ReadingEast program.

SUMMARY:Andrew Joseph White on Hell Followed with Us: Young Adult Horror
DESCRIPTION:In Hell Followed with Us by Andrew Joseph White\, 16-year-old trans boy Benji is on the run from the cult that raised him – the fundamentalist sect that unleashed Armageddon and decimated the world’s population. Desperately\, he searches for a place where the cult can’t get their hands on him\, or more importantly\, on the bioweapon they infected him with. But when cornered by monsters born from the destruction\, Benji is rescued by a group of teens from the local Acheson LGBTQ+ Center\, affectionately known as the ALC. The ALC’s leader\, Nick\, is gorgeous\, autistic\, and a deadly shot\, and he knows Benji’s darkest secret: The cult’s bioweapon is mutating him into a monster deadly enough to wipe humanity from the Earth once and for all. Still\, Nick offers Benji shelter among his ragtag group of queer teens\, as long as Benji can control the monster and use its power to defend the ALC. Eager to belong\, Benji accepts Nick’s terms … until he discovers the ALC’s mysterious leader has a hidden agenda\, and more than a few secrets of his own.

SUMMARY:2021 National Poetry Series Winner Shelley Puhak
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 Shelley Puhak on Harbinger: Poems\, speaking with poet Campbell McGrath\, Nouns & Verbs: New and Selected Poems. Seen through the lens of motherhood\, of working as a waitress\, of watching election results come in\, or of simply sitting in a waiting room\, making art – and making an artist – is a process wherein historical events collide with lived experience\, both deeply personal but also unfailingly political. When we make art\, for what (and to whom) are we accountable? And what does art-making demand of us\, especially as apocalypse looms? Puhak shows us the reality of the constantly evolving and unstable self\, a portrait of the artist as fragmentary\, impressionable\, and always in flux. With a special introduction by Daniel Halpern\, founder of HarperCollins imprint Ecco and the National Poetry Series. \nIn partnership with \n \n

That is to say\, he is an expert\, and his area of study is nothing\, and he does nothing about it. This makes him the perfect partner for aspiring villain John Sill\, whose desire to become a literal Bond villain originated in some genuine nefariousness around the murder of Martin Luther King Jr. Joining Everett is writer and fiction editor David Lerner Schwartz.

SUMMARY:Rhea Ewing on Fine: A Comic About Gender: Nonfiction
DESCRIPTION:When Rhea Ewing neared college graduation in 2012\, they became consumed by the question: “What is gender?” The obsession sparked a quest in which they eagerly approached friends and strangers in their quiet Midwest town for interviews to turn into comics. A decade later\, Fine: A Comic About Gender now presents a sweeping portrait of the intricacies of gender expression with interviewees from all over the country. Questions such as “How do you identify?” produced fiercely honest stories about adolescence\, taking hormones\, and changing pronouns. The answers also underscored how these experiences can differ – often drastically – depending on culture\, race\, and religion. Moderating is Joan Hilty\, executive editor at Avatar Studios.

SUMMARY:Sharon Olds on Balladz: Poetry
DESCRIPTION:“At the time of have-not\, I look at myself in this mirror\,” writes Sharon Olds in Balladz\, a self-scouring\, exhilarating volume which opens with a section of quarantine poems\, and at its center boasts what she calls Amherst Balladz (whose syntax honors Emily Dickinson: “she was our Girl – our Woman – / Man enough – for me”) and many more in her own contemporary\, long-flowing-sentence rhythm. Olds sings of her childhood\, young womanhood\, and maturity all mixed up together\, seeing an early lover in the one who is about to buried; seeing her white privilege without apology; seeing her mother (whom her readers will recognize) “flushed exalted at Punishment time”; seeing how we’ve spoiled the Earth but carrying a stray indoor spider carefully back out to the garden. It is Olds’ gift to us that in the richly detailed exposure of her sorrows she can still elegize songbirds\, her true kin\, and write that heaven comes here in life\, not after it. Joining her to moderate is Mary Sutton\, Academy of American Poets senior content editor. \nIn partnership with
