<p class=MsoNormal>Please join us for the following reading:<br>
<br>
<b>Dolores Hayden</b>, Professor of Architecture, Urbanism, and American
Studies will give a reading from her new collection of poems, <b><i>Nymph, Dun,
and Spinner,</i></b> on Wednesday November 17, 4:30 p.m. in HGS Room 401. A
reception with wine and cheese will follow.<br>
<br>
A noted scholar as well as a poet with an enduring interest in the shape of
time, Hayden maps American landscapes from the paint colors on Kiowa tipis to
the right angle grids of Shaker towns. Whether she conveys the exotic
mimicry of fishing tackle or the banal calculations behind a shopping mall, her
poems illuminate the natural and built worlds with exceptional inventiveness.
Hayden is the recipient of awards from the Poetry Society of America and the
New England Poetry Club. Her first collection, <i>American Yard, </i>was
published in 2004, and she gave the Yale Phi Beta Kappa poem in 2008. Her poems
have appeared in <i>The Yale Review, Southwest Review, Slate, Raritan, The
American Scholar, The Best American Poetry 2009</i>, and many other journals
and anthologies. <o:p></o:p></p>
