Poets Michael Dickman & Carl Adamshick
March 27, 2019 @ 8:30 pm - 9:30 pm
FreeImage-driven and shape-driven, the poems of Michael Dickman’s Days and Days (Knopf) touch on parenthood, childhood, local natural habitats, graffiti culture, roses, and romantic love. Brutal and tender, the spare poems in Carl Adamshick’s Birches (Four Way) recount a son’s unsentimental and powerful love for his mother, while contemplating, in the wake of her death, what it is to be truly alive.
