SUMMARY:U.S. Poet Laureate Ada Limón & Robert Casper: A Conversation
DESCRIPTION:Ada Limón returns to the Miami Book Fair to celebrate her new appointment as the 24th U.S. Poet Laureate and The Hurting Kind\, an astonishing collection about interconnectedness between the human and nonhuman\, ancestors and ourselves. What does it mean to be the hurting kind? To be sensitive not only to the world’s pain and joys\, but to the meanings that bend in the scrim between the natural world and the human world? To divine the relationships between us all? To perceive ourselves in other beings – and to know that those beings are resolutely their own\, that they “do not / care to be seen as symbols”? With Limón’s remarkable ability to trace thought\, The Hurting Kind explores those questions – incorporating others’ stories and ways of knowing\, making surprising turns\, and always reaching a place of startling insight. Presented in partnership with the Library of Congress and O\, Miami; moderated by Robert Casper\, head of Poetry and Literature at the Library of Congress. \nPresented in partnership with \nSponsored by  \n\nFunding for this program was provided through a grant from Florida Humanities with funds from the National Endowment for the Humanities. Any views\, findings\, conclusions or recommendations expressed in this program do not necessarily represent those of Florida Humanities or the National Endowment for the Humanities.

SUMMARY:2021 National Poetry Series Winner Su Cho
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 Su Cho on The Symmetry of Fish\, speaking with the judge who selected her manuscript\, Paige Lewis\, Space Struck. Language and lore are at the core of The Symmetry of Fish\, a moving debut about coming-of-age in the middle of nowhere. With striking and tender insight\, it seeks to give voice to those who have been denied their stories\, and examines the way phrases and narratives are passed down through immigrant families – not diluted over time\, but distilled into potency over generations. In this way\, a family’s language is not lost but continuously remade\, hitched to new associations\, and capable of blooming anew\, with the power to cut across space and time to unearth buried memories. With a special introduction by Daniel Halpern\, founder of HarperCollins imprint Ecco and the National Poetry Series. \nIn partnership with

SUMMARY:Desiree Cooper on Nothing Special: Picture Book
DESCRIPTION:Six-year-old Jax can’t wait to leave Detroit and spend a week with his grandparents in coastal Virginia\, where he’s sure he’ll be spoiled with the kinds of special things he enjoys at home: toys\, movies\, and hamburgers. As he dreams of the adventures he’ll have\, his PopPop has other ideas. He fills their days with timeless summer fun – crabbing\, shucking corn\, and counting fireflies. Illustrated entirely of repurposed textiles\, Nothing Special by Desiree Cooper celebrates the enduring connection between the generations who stayed in the South and the millions of emigrants for whom it will always be home. Between 1910 and 1970\, more than 6 million African Americans left the Jim Crow South\, but they never forgot the culture\, the land\, and the family they left behind. In the decades since\, it has become a summer ritual for many Black families to reverse the journey and return South for a visit to their homeplaces. Introduction by the Miami Mom Collective.

SUMMARY:2021 National Poetry Series Winner Kien Lam
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 Kien Lam on Extinction Theory: Poems\, speaking with the judge who selected his manuscript\, Kyle Dargan\, Anagnorisis: Poems. Extinction Theory is a collection of pseudoscience poems that try to provide rationales for some of life’s most salient mysteries. Where is God? What does it mean to belong? Who killed the dinosaurs? Lam creates new worlds with new rules to better answer these perennial questions. His poetry is that of discovery\, of looking at the world as if for the first time. He exposes the transitory and transcendent nature of things and how we find meaning. With a special introduction by Daniel Halpern\, founder of HarperCollins imprint Ecco and the National Poetry Series. \nIn partnership with

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

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.
