Geoffrey Nutter: Cities at Dawn

Cities_at_Dawn_front_SC_1024x1024

Co-presented by The Bagley Wright Lecture Series on Poetry

This event takes place at The Fireside Room at Hotel Sorrento

Poet Geoffrey Nutter reads from Cities at Dawn (Wave Books, 2016) and other poems. Poet Bill Carty will lead a Q&A following the reading.

“Though its tone is almost always calmly descriptive, whatever it describes is always somehow something else and not itself.” – Barry Schwabsky, Hyperallergic

“These poems are the multi-angled jewels whose light is derived from the fragments Nutter calls out directly.” – Greg Bem, Yellow Rabbits

 


Nutter also leads a half-day generative poetry class on March 25, Twenty Poems in a Day, a Wallson Glass Poetry Seminar. Registration is open to writers of all levels.
