Poets on Poetry: RACHEL HADAS
Tuesday, October 25 @ 3:00 - 4:00 p.m.,
The New School, 66 West 12th Street, Room 510.
A reading and informal conversation with RACHEL HADAS, highly acclaimed author of more than twelve books of poetry, essays, and translations. Her most recent poetry collection is Laws (Zoo Press, 2004).
"What a generous collection this is - a whole life, flesh and spirit, brought to light. . . . a book, not for the library, but for the bedside table - to help explain the day and prepare for the night."
-- J.D.McClatchy
". . . Hadas creates a powerful sense of the emotional region where all those we care about make their demands, the dead as well as the living."
-- Robert Pinsky
"Rachel Hadas has been writing so well for so long that any new book of hers raises expectations that would seem almost impossible to satisfy. And yet, in this wonderful new collection [Laws], she succeeds in raising the ante even higher."
-- Charles Martin
