SUMMARY:Susan Kinsolving reading at "TOGETHER IN A SUDDEN STRANGENESS: America's Poets Respond to the Pandemic"
DESCRIPTION:In this urgent outpouring of American voices\, our poets speak to us as they shelter in place\, addressing our collective fear\, grief\, and hope from eloquent and diverse individual perspectives. Moderated by Alice Quinn\, this event features readings by contributors Billy Collins\, Kamilah Aisha Moon\, Tomás Q. Morín\, Susan Kinsolving\, Vijay Seshadri & April Bernard.\nAs the Novel Coronavirus and its devastating effects began to spread in the United States and around the world\, Alice Quinn reached out to poets across the country to see if\, and what\, they were writing under quarantine. Overwhelmed by the response\, the onetime New Yorker poetry editor and recent former director of the Poetry Society of America began collecting the compassionate verses that were arriving in her inbox\, assembling this various\, intimate\, and intricate portrait of our suddenly altered reality. Whether grieving for relatives they are separated from\, recovering from illness themselves\, attending to suddenly complicated household tasks\, or considering the bravery of medical workers and the inequities in our society that amplify sorrow and demand our engagement\, our poets are just like us\, but with the words to describe what can feel unspeakably difficult and strange. From fierce and resilient to wistful\, darkly humorous\, and emblematically reverent about the earth and the vulnerability of human beings in frightening times\, the poems in this collection provide wisdom and companionship\, depths of feeling that enliven our spirits\, and a poignant summoning to the page of spring’s inevitable return. \nAlice Quinn was the executive director of the Poetry Society of America for eighteen years\, Poetry Editor at The New Yorker from 1987 to 2007\, and an editor at Knopf for more than ten years prior to that. She currently teaches at Columbia University’s School of the Arts and is the editor of a book of Elizabeth Bishop’s writings\, Edgar Allan Poe & the Juke-Box: Uncollected Poems\, Drafts\, and Fragments\, as well as a forthcoming book of Bishop’s journals. She lives in New York City. \nBilly Collins is the former Poet Laureate of the United States (2001-2003). He is a member of the American Academy of Arts and Letters and the author of many collections\, including The Rain in Portugal and\, most recently\, Whale Day which was published in September 2020. \nKamilah Aisha Moon is the author of Starshine & Clay and She Has a Name. She teaches creative writing at Agnes Scott College and has been published widely\, including in The Best American Poetry\, The American Poetry Review\, The Harvard Review\, and Poem-a-Day. \nTomás Q. Morín is the author of Patient Zero and A Larger Country. He is a Civitella Ranieri Fellow and the author of a forthcoming memoir\, Let Me Count the Ways. \nSusan Kinsolving’s poems have been described by The New Yorker as “…grand and almost terrifying.”  Her fourth collection\, Peripheral Vision\, was published by Red Hen Press. She is Poet in Residence at the Hotchkiss School. \nVijay Seshadri’s latest poetry book is That Was Now\, This Is Then (Graywolf Press\, 2020). His work has been widely published and recognized with a number of honors. He teaches at Sarah Lawrence College. \nApril Bernard writes poetry\, fiction\, and essays; her most recent books are Miss Fuller\, a novel\, and Brawl & Jag\, a collection of poems. She teaches at Skidmore College and in the Bennington MFA Writing Seminars. \nBUY THE BOOK \nThis online event is free.
