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.

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.
