Adam Sarlan -- Poetry Reading In-Person
Poetry lovers and birdwatchers unite for this evening of poetry reading in honor of National Poetry Month! Come experience the writing of Adam Sarlan as he treats us to a personal reading from his chapbook entitled The Red Tail.
The Red-Tail collects seventeen different birds important to the poet’s life- bluejays, cormorants, geese, egrets, and gulls, among others. The poems find a certain wisdom and friendship in these birds while studying their everyday habits and listening to their teachings, and challenges us to sit with the birds, listen to them, and learn from their lessons.
This debut chapbook also explores the idea of living while mourning lost loved ones. The poet finds comfort and solace in nature amidst grief, and finds that a strong connection to nature helps one begin to live a life of happiness and self-acceptance again after tragedy.
This evening is sure to be a moving and expressive evening of verse.
