Mark Wunderlich and Friends

Poets Mark Wunderlich, Pimone Triplett, Andrew Feld, and Katharine Whitcomb will gather for a reading. Wunderlich will read from his brand-new collection, The Earth Avails (Graywolf Press 2014).

“Mark Wunderlich’s book seems to be arguing that the best way to know who we are is not by excavating the immediate world around us, but the world we’re losing and have nearly lost.”
—John Ebersole
