Online reading series featuring literary partners who are sheltering in place together
This virtual poetry reading series features literary partners who are sheltering in place together.
Couples will chat, read favorites from their own and each others’ work, and tell us what this period has been like for them.
Cornelius Eady is the author of eight books of poetry, including Hardheaded Weather: New and Selected Poems (Putnam, April 2008). In 1996 Eady co-founded, with writer Toi Derricotte, the Cave Canem summer workshop/retreat for African American poets. More than a decade later, Cave Canem is a thriving national network of black poets, as well as an institution offering regional workshops, readings, a first book prize, and the summer retreat. Eady has been a teacher for more than twenty years, and is now a professor at Notre Dame University.
Sarah Micklem is the author of the best-selling fantasy novel, Firethorn (Scribner, 2004). She began writing after many years as a graphic designer and spent fourteen years working for Time Warner, designing for a children’s magazine in New York City. She wrote Firethorn while working as the art director for the magazine. She lives with her husband, poet and playwright Cornelius Eady, in New York City and Indiana, where she teaches fiction at the University of Notre Dame.
