I’ll be on this panel for the National Book Critics Circle at the Minneapolis Public Librarynext Wednesday Nov. 3 with other Graywolf authors and editors: Eula Biss, the amazing Marlon James (who came to the Twin Cities just when we left!) and Jeff Shotts.
The night before that I’ll be trying not to think about the election results that come in as I listen to Sarah Fox and John Colburn read and discuss the death of poetry (so the hed sez) at Bryant Lake Bowl. Sounds like fun to me.
I’ve got something new on the Poetry Foundation site about Agha Shahid Ali and what’s likely his best poem. Thanks to the patient editors and Urdu-speakers who gave me needed advice.
And thanks, too, to Jessie, who built this site– which I don’t use nearly enough– as I head farther away from the books already discussed here, towards the books of the future, by way of the baby of the moment, who can do more, and it seems eats more, every day.
