Celebrate National Poetry Month with Ross Gay!

Celebrate the power of poetry with a virtual poetry reading by author Ross Gay.

Ross Gay has published four collections of poetry (Against Which; Bringing the Shovel Down; Be Holding; Catalog of Unabashed Gratitude), The Book of Delights, and various other works. He also co-authored the chapbook “Lace and Pyrite: Letters from Two Gardens” with Aimee Nezhukumatathil, author of this year’s title for the Community Book Read, World of Wonders: In Praise of Fireflies, Whale Sharks, and Other Astonishments. For this program, Ross Gay will read some selections from his poetry works. Hosted by Bartholomew, Brown, Monroe, and Jackson County Public Libraries, this event will take place on Zoom and Facebook Live.
