Poetry Book Club: The WIlderness

« All Events

August 26 @ 6:30 pm 7:30 pm

Our poetry selection for August is The Wilderness by Sandra Lim. If you haven’t already, please complete the form and be sure to purchase your copy at Scholar & Scribe to read beforehand…and get 10% off when you do!

Moving through myths of the American landscape, the fatalism of American Puritanism, family history, New England winters, aesthetic theory, and the suavities and anxieties of contemporary life, the poems in this astonishing collection ultimately speak about the individual soul’s struggle with its own meaning. 

From “Aubade”

From the last stars to sunrise the world is dark and enduring
and emptiness has its place.

Then, to wake each day to the world’s unwavering
limits, you have to think about passion differently, again.

This is a great opportunity to share your thoughts and connect with fellow book lovers. We look forward to seeing you there!
