Synopsis

It is in the poet's own voice — in the rhythms, inflections and intonations — where poems take on the power and passion to come alive. This extraordinary evening of spoken poetry will celebrate some of America's most acclaimed poets through live readings and rare archival recordings by Elizabeth Bishop, William Stafford, and Gwendolyn Brooks. Featuring Robert Bly, Jorie Graham, and Sonia Sanchez
