Saw Rachel Zucker and DA Powell read on Wednesday at Fordham U’s Lincoln Center campus as part of the
Poets Out Loud series. An extraordinary reading—they each read for about 35 minutes, which could be a long time, but they had us all rapt. Zucker’s poems about motherhood just keep getting better. And Powell read from Cocktails, a few poems from each of the three sections. By the end, when he read I think the last of the biblical poems, we all felt awed.

The deeper I get into her book the more I wish I'd caught that reading! Well, she's local, I guess, so next time, next time....
Ah, but she's reading again, and soon, in the Burning Chair series. On December 18th.
