SUMMARY:Henri Cole
DESCRIPTION:City Lights Booksellers in conjunction with Mechanics’ Institute Library and NYRB present\n\nHenri Cole celebrating the release of \n  \nOrphic Paris \nfrom New York Review Books \nHenri Cole’s Orphic Paris combines autobiography\, diary\, essay\, and prose poetry with photographs to create a new form of elegiac memoir. With Paris as a backdrop\, Cole\, an award-winning American poet\, explores with fresh and penetrating insight the nature of friendship and family\, poetry and solitude\, the self and freedom. \nCole writes of Paris\, “For a time\, I lived here\, where the call of life is so strong. My soul was colored by it. Instead of worshiping a creator or man\, I cared fully for myself\, and felt not guilt and confessed nothing\, and in this place\, I wrote\, I was nourished\, and I grew.” Written under the tutelary spirit of Orpheus—mystic\, oracular\, entrancing—Orphic Paris is an intimate Paris journal and a literary commonplace book that is a touching\, original\, brilliant account of the city. \nWhat has been said about the work of Henri Cole \nHenri Cole’s Orphic Paris is a remarkable work—a poet’s most intimate diary\, written entirely in Paris\, in a sequence of visits that take us into the interior of the city as into the interior of the questing poet’s soul. The voice of the poet here is confiding\, erudite\, tender\, unexpected in its sympathies and discoveries; like Henri Cole’s extraordinary poetry\, it is both finely crafted and yet—seemingly—artless\, unpretentious. One of the great pleasures of Orphic Paris is the poet’s delight in the work and words of others—fellow poets\, artist-friends\, Parisians who drift into his ardently observant life\, and move on.\n—Joyce Carol Oates \nHenri Cole was born in Fukuoka\, Japan\, to a French mother and an American father. He has published nine collections of poetry\, including Middle Earth\, which was a finalist for the Pulitzer.  He has received many awards for his work\, including the Jackson Prize\, the Kingsley Tufts Award\, the Rome Prize\, the Berlin Prize\, the Lenore Marshall Award\, and the Medal in Poetry from the American Academy of Arts and Letters. His most recent collection of poetry is Nothing to Declare. He teaches at Claremont McKenna College and lives in Boston. \nVisit  https://www.milibrary.org for more info on ticket availability

SUMMARY:You're Going to Die
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, April 5\, 2018\n7:30 PM  10:30 PM\nThe Lost Church (map)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDoors at 7:30pm\nShow at 8pm\n$10 online & at the door…\nTICKETSSSSSS: http://ticketf.ly/2oVcGLP \nYOU’RE GOING TO DIE: Poetry\, Prose & Everything Goes…\nis an open mic event\,\na communal offering for us to explore the conversation of death & dying\,\nto embrace our losses & mortality\,\nto grieve\, bereave & honor those we’ve lost & love…\nwhile all the while making room for simply being ALIVE. \nSign-ups will be the night of & the list fills up quickly\, so if you want to perform\, you’d better get there early… \nIf you’re going to perform\, keep it under 5 MINUTES. That’s right: 5 MINUTES. WE WILL TIME YOU. And we will hug you when we have to stop you [just to make it easier on you (or harder – depending on your propensity for intimacy)]. \nPoetry\, prose\, music\, dancing\, comedy\, drama\, happy\, sad\, & on & on & on… Remember: EVERYTHING GOES… so do whatever you want. \nYou don’t have to perform anything; the audience is as essential as the performers. \nPlease don’t perform anything with a setup that takes much more time than the time it takes for you to walk onstage. Honestly\, plugging things in is endlessly boring. If you need to borrow an instrument\, figure it out before you’re called to the stage. \nIMPORTANT ::: DON’T TAKE YOURSELF SO SERIOUSLY. Come and have fun. The end. Remember. Someday\, we won’t exist and neither will the English language. If you choose to take yourself seriously\, then take yourself so seriously that it’s stupid. Ridiculousness is encouraged. \nYou’re Going to Die. No. Really. You are.
