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:2021 National Poetry Series Winner Kien Lam

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: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: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.

SUMMARY:Three Poets on Geography\, Intimacy & Dislocation
DESCRIPTION:In All the Names Given: Poems\, Raymond Antrobus outlines a childhood caught between intimacy and brutality\, sound and silence\, and conflicting racial and cultural identities – shifting fluidly between England\, South Africa\, Jamaica\, and the American South. This Alaska by Carlie Hoffman interrogates all that emotional and physical intimacy cannot salvage or keep warm. To live in an Alaska of the mind is to map the imagined cartography of winter on all that is physical\, to dwell perpetually in a symbolic cold\, and to emerge\, with grace\, unscathed. In Cleave\, Tiana Nobile grapples with the history of transnational adoption\, both her own from South Korea and the broader\, collective experience. In conversation with psychologist Harry Harlow’s monkey experiments and utilizing fragments of a highly personal cache of documents from her own adoption\, these poems explore dislocation\, familial relationships\, and the science of love and attachment. Moderated by author and podcaster John King\, founder and host of The Drunken Odyssey: A Podcast About the Writing Life. \nSponsored by                                                                                               \n \n  \n  \nIn partnership with

SUMMARY:This Moment in Time: David Kirby & Barbara Hamby in Conversation
DESCRIPTION:In Help Me\, Information: Poems\, David Kirby’s works move the way the mind does on a good day\, puddle-jumping from one topic to another and then coming in for a soft landing. In The Knowledge: Where Poems Come From and How to Write Them\, five-time teaching award winner Kirby invites college students to learn the complex\, playful\, and meditative art form of poetry\, offering tips\, talking points\, and unique prompts in each chapter. “Holoholo” is the Hawaiian word for walking out with no destination in mind. Fueled by an American lingo that embraces slang\, Yiddish\, street talk\, and the yearning to be able to describe her moment in time\, with Hololo: Poems\, Barbara Hamby walks out into the current American chaos with its inferno of wars\, street violence\, apocalyptic fantasies\, and racial tension. \nSponsored by

SUMMARY:In Conversation: Kaveh Akbar & Kevin Young
DESCRIPTION:Kaveh Akbar’s second collection\, Pilgrim Bell: Poems\, takes its readers on a spiritual journey of disavowal\, fiercely attendant to the presence of divinity where artifacts of self and belonging have been shed. Akbar responds with prayer as an act of devotion to dissonance – the infinite void of a loved one’s absence\, the indulgence of austerity\, making a life as a Muslim in an Islamophobic nation – teasing the sacred out of silence and stillness. Whether it’s the fireflies of a Louisiana summer caught in a mason jar (doomed by their collection)\, or his grandmother\, Mama Annie\, who latches the screen door when someone steps out for just a moment\, all that makes up our flickering precarious joy\, all that we want to protect\, is lifted into the light in this moving book. Stones: Poems becomes an ode to Kevin Young’s home places and his dear departed\, and to what of them – of us – poetry can save. \nSponsored by                                                                                               \n \n  \n  \nIn partnership with

SUMMARY:Reason & Unreason: Three Poets on Destruction\, Memory & Hope
DESCRIPTION:In Asylum: A Personal\, Historical\, Natural Inquiry in 103 Lyric Sections\, Jill Bialosky considers the oppositions that govern us: our reason and unreason\, our need to preserve and destruct\, building a narrative sequence that examines her nascent calling as a writer; her sister’s suicide and its still unfolding aftermath; the horror unleashed by World War II; the life cycle of the monarch butterfly; and the woods where she seeks asylum – to form a moving story\, powerfully braiding despair\, survival\, and hope. Walking through the landscape of loss\, the poems in Anne Marie Macari’s Heaven Beneath: Poems explore the illness of a parent and the parallel ongoing degradation and destruction of the planet and its creatures. Beneath “paved-over space\,” in the deep currents of a river\, or the shadows of great trees\, there’s another world\, there’s a heaven\, unknowable\, in the muck\, alive and with us\, not distant or abstract. Maggie Smith\, the author of Keep Moving\, returns to poetry with Goldenrod: Poems\, a new collection that looks at parenthood\, solitude\, love\, and memory\, pulling objects from everyday life to celebrate the contours of daily life\, explore and delight in the space between thought and experience\, and remind us that we decide what is beautiful. Moderated by Caridad Moro-Gronlier of Supporting Women Writers in Miami (SWWIM). \nSponsored by                                                                                               \n \n  \n  \nIn partnership with

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

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.

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

DESCRIPTION:In poetry and prose\, Steven Reigns’ A Quilt for David explores the story of David Acer\, whose homosexuality and sickly appearance from AIDS-related illness made him the perfect scapegoat and a victim of mob mentality in his conservative\, early 1990s-era Florida town.

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

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.

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
