SUMMARY:Jay Featherstone
DESCRIPTION:Jay Featherstone’s Glass is true to its title as these poems allow the reader to look straight though language to see clearly how joy and loss are inextricably connected (“On the path to impoverishment\,/tenderness. // In the long taking away\, / hearing festival sounds / through all the streets of the city.”). From Wilkes-Barre to Yokohama\, from son to father (“Feel my chest. It’s not a scar. It’s a letter /”)\, father to son (“Nights and years of wanting / you to be like the others.”)\, to mother\, brother and grandchild\, the poems in Glass remember and conjure as they speak intimately and without artifice to and through generations. The force of these unforced lines is breathtaking\, the subtlety of observation and thought\, incisive and often shattering. Glass holds the reader closely\, honoring both memory and life with a powerful authenticity (“I have not told everything—only enough / to keep from remembering wrong.”) \nJoan Houlihan \nThe speaker in these poems is anchored by experience – “I wake\, ancient\, tired of myself” – and\, at the same time\, reawakened to innocence by “the secret singing self.” While their settings range from Cape Ann to Yokohama\, Featherstone’s poems consistently trust the lustrous glow of memory to lead him in and out of darkness. In “Catholic Church Rejects Limbo (Reuters)\,” “a loose thread from the hem / of a cotton dress” takes him to “the vast rim of vanished children in the arms of unknown / nurses…” In “Bodhisattva\,” the poet’s father “hovers\, uninvited\, / on the unlit porch /of my brother’s dementia.” Pain inflicted by parents\, by teachers\, by age\, by love\, by history\, by fate – it’s all here\, and it’s all lovingly tempered by a poet who confesses\, “happiness / keeps interrupting me.” \nErica Funkhouser \nShare this:\n				Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n				Facebook\n			\n				Share on X (Opens in new window)\n				X\n			\n				Share on Tumblr (Opens in new window)\n				Tumblr\n			\n				Share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)\n				LinkedIn\n			\n				Share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)\n				Pinterest

His work has appeared in The Café Review and in The Anthology of Post-Beat Poetry in translation in China.

SUMMARY:Synesthesia and the Fusion of the Arts. Martin Ray and Stephen Bates.
DESCRIPTION:  \n  \nA program of photographs\, haiku\, and clarinet compositions originating from Halibut Point. \n  \nFriday evening\, April 12\, 7:30 at the home of Stephen and Isabella Bates\, 2 Masconomo Street\, Manchester. Seating 60. Reservations required\, (978) 526-1443 or clarone@comcast.net.  Admission is free. Donate $20 at the door to the Gloucester Writers Center\, receive a signed copy of Martin Ray’s Quarry Scrolls\, photographs and haiku from Halibut Point. Presented with support from the Massachusetts Cultural Council. \n  \nWe experience Synesthesia when one sense stimulates another\, a source of creative pleasure that can be heightened\, liberated\, and channeled in diverse ways. In the Fusion of the Arts we seek to enjoy a conversational interplay of forms and responses to underlying aesthetic awareness. \n  \nUpon retirement from his career as a Cape Ann landscape gardener\, Martin Ray brought his focus to the natural and social history of Halibut Point\, where he has composed nearly three hundred weekly blog essays. His recent book Quarry Scrolls\, which generated tonight’s program\, is drawn from his Halibut Point photographs and meditations in haiku. Martin has also published Cape Ann Narratives of Art in Life featuring contemporary creativity. \n  \nStephen Bates deepened his integration of the arts during his career as clarinetist for the Opera House Orchestra of the Kennedy Center\, Washington\, D.C.\, where he made paintings exploring the relationship between art and music\, particularly inspired by Kandinsky and Scriabin. Since moving to Manchester with his wife Isabella in 2009\, Stephen has increasingly applied his innovations to sculpture\, and to teaching silk painting at the Ten Pound Studio in Gloucester. \nShare this:\n				Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n				Facebook\n			\n				Share on X (Opens in new window)\n				X\n			\n				Share on Tumblr (Opens in new window)\n				Tumblr\n			\n				Share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)\n				LinkedIn\n			\n				Share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)\n				Pinterest

SUMMARY:Linda McCarriston and Robert Booth
DESCRIPTION:  \nLike Vincent Ferrini\, poet Linda McCarriston is a native of Lynn. She has two sons and four granddaughters. It took her much longer to settle in Gloucester than it did Vincent (she treasures a copy of No Smoke that he gave her in 2002). Educated in Lynn’s Catholic schools\, she won some high-school writing prizes. On the day she was to receive a Boston Globe journalism award\, she was unable to get the afternoon off from her job and couldn’t attend the ceremony. She did get to the University of Alaska\, where she taught poetry for 21 years; and she did get to the National Book Awards in 1992\, for her second book of poems\, Eva-Mary\, which had won the Terrence Des Pres Prize. Her first and third books of poems\, Talking Soft Dutch\, and Little River\, are likewise still in print.

SUMMARY:Otto Laske and Zvi Sesling
DESCRIPTION:Otto Laske was born in what is now West Poland (Wroclaw/Breslau) three years before the onset of World War II. His first poetry emerged in German at age 15\, perhaps as a result of war trauma and the return of his father from Russian prison camps when he was 11. After studies in music\, the social sciences\, and philosophy (Frankfurt School 1956-66)\, Otto came to the U.S. as a Fulbright student in music composition at New England Conservatory in 1966. Living in the U.S. led him at age 32 to writing in English\, which he continued into the middle 1990s. He turned from music to the visual arts when coming to Gloucester\, MA\, in 2010. \nOtto Laske’s poetic work consists of a large collection of German poems called “Silesian Word Smithy” (Schlesische Sprachschmiede) for which he is presently negotiating a contract with a publisher in Germany. His English poetry comprises four collections of over 100 poems called — from earlier to later — Tremblings\, Untold Harmonies\, Karman Poems\, and Renewal by Fire. Pieces from these collections have been published in multi-lingual journals such as Osiris since the early nineties. \nOtto’s writing practice was originally influenced by German expressionism (Gottfried Benn\, Paul Celan). In English\, it was open to many influences including algorithmic “sentence generators” in the 1990s. His artistic output is now part of the “Otto Laske Archive” comprising music compositions\, animations\, digital paintings and drawings at Texas State University\, San Marcos\, Texas. \nOtto’s reading will start with a few German originals and their translations and continue with selected pieces from his four English poetry collections. \n  \n  \nZvi A. Sesling\, Brookline\, MA Poet Laureate\, has published poetry in numerous magazines both in print and online in ten countries. Among the publication credits are: Slant\, Midstream\, Main Street Rag\, Prosopisia (India)\, Ibbetson St.\,  Saranac Review\, New Delta Review\, The Chaffin Journal\, Green Door (Belgium)\, Voices Israel (Israel) and Levure Litteraire (France). He has won several poetry prizes in Israel and was a featured poet in the Tenth Annual Jewish Poetry Festival and at First Light Night in Brookline\, MA. His poetry was used in the Spring Rain Poetry Festival on Cyprus in 2012. Sesling reviews for the Boston Small Press & Poetry Scene\, is Editor of Muddy River Poetry Review. He has been a featured reader in various venues in the Boston area and San Diego\, and in the Massachusetts Poetry Festival and the National Boston Poetry Festival. Sesling has done readings on local cable television and radio stations and was selected by Boston Poet Laureate Sam Cornish to read at the New England PEN Discovery Reading. He is author of War Zones\, which is nominated for Mass Center for the Book Poetry Award\, The Lynching of Leo Frank\, which was nominated for the National Jewish Poetry Book Award\, Fire Tongue and King of the Jungle\, as well as two chapbooks\, Love Poems From Hell and Across Stones of Bad Dreams. He has taught at Suffolk University\, Emerson College and Boston University. He lives in Chestnut Hill\, MA with his wife Susan J. Dechter. \nShare this:\n				Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n				Facebook\n			\n				Share on X (Opens in new window)\n				X\n			\n				Share on Tumblr (Opens in new window)\n				Tumblr\n			\n				Share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)\n				LinkedIn\n			\n				Share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)\n				Pinterest

SUMMARY:Jennifer Martelli and Cindy Veach
DESCRIPTION:Jennifer Martelli is the author of My Tarantella (Bordighera Press). Most recently\, her work has appeared in Tinderbox Poetry\, The Bitter Oleander\, Sugar House Review\, The Baltimore Review\, and The Superstition Review. She has been nominated for both the Pushcart and Best of the Net Prizes and is the recipient of the Massachusetts Cultural Council Grant for Poetry. She is a poetry editor for The Mom Egg Review. \n  \nJennifer will be reading from her new collection\, My Tarantella\, as well as some of her newer work. \n  \nAlthough My Tarantella centers around the 1964 murder of Kitty Genovese and violence against women\, it also speaks to the author’s upbringing as a girl in an Italian-American home in Revere\, Massachusetts. From that vantage point\, the poems explore trauma caused by the 2016 Presidential election. Kitty Genovese is woven throughout the book as a reminder that she is a living presence to the speaker. \n\n\n\n\nCindy Veach is the author of Gloved Against Blood (CavanKerry Press)\, named a finalist for the 2018 Paterson Poetry Prize. Her poetry has appeared in the Academy of American Poets Poem-a-Day\, AGNI\, Prairie Schooner\, Poet Lore\, Michigan Quarterly Review\, Salamander and elsewhere. She is co-editor of The Mom Egg Review. \nCindy will be reading from her debut poetry collection\, Gloved Against Blood. She will also read a selection of new poems. \nGloved Against Blood explores the relationships of four generations of women against a backdrop of the patriarchal textile mills of 19th century Lowell\, Massachusetts that were fueled by the blood and sweat of exploited mill girls and enslaved African-Americans in the south. This collection speaks to family\, lost love\, infidelities\, abandonment and the close work\, women’s work of mending what is torn and making it like new despite the forces of inherited histories. \n\n\nShare this:\n				Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n				Facebook\n			\n				Share on X (Opens in new window)\n				X\n			\n				Share on Tumblr (Opens in new window)\n				Tumblr\n			\n				Share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)\n				LinkedIn\n			\n				Share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)\n				Pinterest

SUMMARY:Nancy Schwoyer and Rosemary Haughton: Reclaiming Home-Making
DESCRIPTION:Join Rosemary Haughton and Nancy Schwoyer on Wednesday\, Dec. 5\,7:30 p.m. at the Gloucester Writers Center for a conversation about the book they are working on. It is based on their experiences as founders of Wellspring House and their many years of practicing “radical hospitality”.\n\nIn their words:”The phrase ‘home-making’ has traditionally meant women’s work\, something of lesser importance than a ‘professional’ job.  Now\, it has become clearer and clearer that the essential work of both women and  men is to make our only home\, the earth\, a home fit for all living creatures to live in.\n\nAt Wellspring\, doing the everyday jobs of \, literally\, homemaking in the spirit of hospitality both attracted and inspired others \, in the words of the mission statement\, ‘to care for the earth and her people’  at many levels and into the future.”\n\nTwo of the seven founders of Wellspring House in 1981\, they work for social justice at the local\, state and national levels. They are known in several countries through their lectures and writings (Rosemary has published more than 30 books).\n\nRosemary and Nancy look forward to this opportunity to dialog with many friends.\n\n\n\nShare this:\n				Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n				Facebook\n			\n				Share on X (Opens in new window)\n				X\n			\n				Share on Tumblr (Opens in new window)\n				Tumblr\n			\n				Share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)\n				LinkedIn\n			\n				Share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)\n				Pinterest
