Poetry Reading with Meena Alexander February 20, 2008

Meena Alexander will read from her new poetry collection, Quickly Changing River.

"These are poems of rich and satisfying detail-- gingko trees and water taxis, the pearly feathers of pigeons. But the real strength of this book goes far beyond detail, however lyrically rendered. These poems are a sustained elegy for homelessness, for the displacement at the heart of human life. Meena Alexander is an eloquent and ambitious poet."
-- Eavan Boland
