[Nancy, could this go out to the list? Looking forward to seeing you for
the reading (I hope)--all best, Susan]<br><br>
The poet Henri Cole will give a reading TODAY, Monday, September 25, 2006
at 6 p.m. at St. Anthony Hall, 483 College Street, corner of Wall and
College Streets (near the Silliman College renovations). He will be
introduced by poet and Yale faculty member Louise Gluck. Sponsored by the
Department of English. Free and open to the public.<br><br>
Henri Cole was born in Fukuoka, Japan, and was raised in Virginia. The
recipient of many awards, he is the author, most recently, of <i>Middle
Earth</i> (Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 2003), a Pulitzer Prize finalist,
and <i>The Visible Man</i> (Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 1998). His sixth
collection of poetry, <i>Blackbird and Wolf,</i> is forthcoming from FSG
next year. "I don't want words to sever me from reality," he
asserts, and these poems--often hovering within the realm of the
sonnet--combine a delight in the senses with the rueful, the elegiac, and
the harrowing.<br>
