For our friends north of Boston, I’ll be giving a poetry reading on Saturday, March 14, at 3:00 p.m. at:
Jabberwocky Bookshop
50 Water Street
Newburyport, Massachusetts
Put together by our friends among the Powow River Poets—Rhina Espaillat, A.M. Juster, Michael Cantor, Len Krisak, and lots more, many of whom have been published in First Things —the event is free and open to the public. Come, if you get the chance.
