[Yale-readings] Monday: Henri Cole Reading

[Nancy Kuhl]

The poet Henri Cole will give a reading on 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.

Henri Cole was born in Fukuoka, Japan, and was raised in Virginia. The 
recipient of many awards, he is the author, most recently, of Middle Earth 
(Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 2003), a Pulitzer Prize finalist, and The 
Visible Man (Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 1998). His sixth collection of 
poetry, Blackbird and Wolf, 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.
