Program Description

Event Details

Poetry can be like a song in its ease of interpretation.  But sometimes, from highly celebrated poets, verse can seem distant and hard to understand. This group explores poetry in a casual, round-table-like discussion. No lecture, just reading and sharing our interpretations – we will learn from each other.  Register for this event and you will receive three poems to read prior to the event. Come prepared to share your thoughts about each poem.

Laura Cavers is the Readers’ Advisor and has been a Writing Instructor at New Canaan Library and Darien Library for over 10 years. She has an MFA in Creative Writing from Manhattanville College and is writing a novel, Bellwethers over Lenox.

The Poetry Appreciation Roundtable will meet again September & December in 2023.
