Posted by mamta on Friday, March 19, 2010 (13:17:14)
On March 23 and 24, poet Frank Bidart will discuss the craft of poetry and give a reading. For those less familiar with the writing world, Bidart has a reputation for provocation; his poems, like his readings, are often graphic, and his readings often have the atmosphere of a rock concert.
