I'm sharing a talk on American Sonnets next week in Venice, open to the public in another of Ca' Foscari's lovely seminar rooms. Come for the poetry, enjoy the canal-side views as a bonus! This seminar will consider the American sonnet in all its vigor and diversity.

This audience was amazing, and among the querents were a Shakespeare professor, a gynecologist, and a poet who wanted to talk back to older works, so it was as if they had been curated especially for this book.

Possibly by this point in National Poetry Month, you would rather poke hot pins in your eyes than have one more versifier nattering at you. If, however, you still have some stamina, please consider joining us.
