SUMMARY:Raphael Cohen + Jonathan Moody
DESCRIPTION:Raphael Cohen is a writer-performer committed to poetry for social change. His debut book of poems is Scrutinizing Lines(2007). His new chapbook\, Rebel Elegant\, is a single long poem on Mahmoud Abdul-Rauf\, a rising star for the Denver Nuggets basketball team\, who was suspended by the NBA when he refused to stand for the national anthem\, citing his Muslim conscience and the U.S.’s history of racial and economic oppression. Cohen has performed widely across the U.S. and in Canada\, taught\, facilitated training at various youth empowerment groups and founded and directed Play at the Margins Press\, an independent publishing and event production initiative. \nJonathan Moody’s new book of poems\, winner of the 2014 Cave Canem Northwestern University Press Poetry Prize\, is Olympic Butter Gold; Pleiades says\, “Jonathan Moody’s second full-length collection of poems…overflows with music\, image\, and pop culture. The speaker is a natural storyteller\, fusing lyric and narrative with a voice that walks the line between youth and experience\, playfulness and seriousness.” A Cave Canem graduate fellow\, he is also author of the collection The Doomy Poems.

SUMMARY:Sasaki\, Share\, Banias\, + Zamora
DESCRIPTION:Present Who Reads Poetry: 50 Views from “Poetry” Magazine. \nBuy a book to reserve your seat! Call the store 510.704.8222. \nWho reads poetry? We know that poets do\, but what about the rest of us? When and why do we turn to verse? Seeking the answer\, Poetry Magazine since 2005 has published a column called “The View From Here\,” which has invited readers “from outside the world of poetry” to describe what has drawn them to poetry. Over the years\, the incredibly diverse set of contributors have included philosophers\, journalists\, musicians\, and artists\, as well as doctors and soldiers\, an iron-worker\, an anthropologist\, and an economist. This collection brings together fifty compelling pieces\, which are in turns surprising\, provocative\, touching\, and funny. \nWho Reads Poetry offers a truly unique and broad selection of perspectives and reflections\, proving that poetry can be read by everyone. No matter what you’re seeking\, you can find it within the lines of a poem. \nFred Sasaki edits Poetry magazine’s prose feature “The View from Here\,” from which the essays in this book are gathered. He is the art director of Poetry magazine and a gallery curator at the Poetry Foundation. He authored Real Life Emails\, a book of deluded emails\, and the zine series FRED SASAKI’S AND FRED SASAKI’S FOUR-PAGER GUIDE TO: HOW TO FIX YOU.

He is also cofounder of the Homeroom 101 pop and subculture show. \nDon Share is the editor of Poetry magazine.

Other books of his include Seneca in English\, Squandermania\, and The Open Door: 100 Poems\, 100 Years of “Poetry” Magazine.
