SUMMARY:Poetry Book Club--Modern Poetry by Diane Seuss
DESCRIPTION:Please join us at 10:00 a.m. Saturday\, July 27\, 2024 at Bakeshop\, 940 Eleventh Street in Modesto for MoSt Poetry Book Club. Linda Scheller will facilitate a discussion of Modern Poetry\, the latest collection by Diane Seuss. Copies are available at the Modesto Library main desk. You’re always more than welcome to come and enjoy the discussion whether or not you’ve read the book! This event is free and open to the public. \n“Diane Seuss’s signature voice—audacious in its honesty\, virtuosic in its artistry\, outsider in its attitude—has become one of the most original in contemporary poetry. Her latest collection takes its title\, Modern Poetry\, from the first textbook Seuss encountered as a child and the first poetry course she took in college\, as an enrapt but ill-equipped student\, one who felt poetry was beyond her reach. Many of the poems make use of the forms and terms of musical and poetic craft—ballad\, fugue\, aria\, refrain\, coda—and contend with the works of writers overrepresented in textbooks and anthologies and those too often underrepresented. Seuss provides a moving account of her picaresque years and their uncertainties\, and in the process\, she enters the realm between Modernism and Romanticism\, between romance and objectivity\, with Keats as ghost\, lover\, and interlocutor.” —https://www.graywolfpress.org/books/modern-poetry \n \nDiane Seuss is the author of six books of poetry\, including Modern Poetry; frank: sonnets\, winner of the Pulitzer Prize\, the National Book Critics Circle Award\, the Los Angeles Times Book Prize\, and the PEN/Voelcker Prize; Still Life With Two Dead Peacocks and a Girl\, a finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award and the Los Angeles Times Book Prize; and Four-Legged Girl\, a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize. She was a 2020 Guggenheim Fellow\, and in 2021 she received the John Updike Award from the American Academy of Arts and Letters. She lives in Michigan.

SUMMARY:MoSt Poetry Book Club
DESCRIPTION:“The late W.S. Merwin might as well have been called Merlin\, for the seemingly magical changes of his work during his long career.  The poems in Present Company are like impressionist or even abstract paintings.  If you scan them quickly\, they will seem to be out of focus\, but if you read more slowly\, stopping and lingering\, your patience will be rewarded by their beauty.”
