Description:
The Life of the Poet
A Conversation with Mark Strand and Eli Gottlieb
Saturday, May 3, 4 to 6 pm, booksigning to follow
Jones Theatre at the Denver Center for the Performing Arts
This special springtime Writer’s Studio will feature an onstage reading by former US Poet Laureate and Pulitzer Prize-winner Mark Strand, followed by a ranging, casual onstage discussion exploring the writing life. Eli Gottlieb (whose book Now You See Him sits atop the local bestseller list) and Mark will discuss starting out, the arc of Mark’s growth as a writer, some of the more nourishing friendships formed along the way, writing in Rome, and how the world of poetry--the making and reading of it--have changed through the years. Less an interview and more a conversation, this interlude will allow the audience a dynamic look into the life of one of today's great living writers.
Cost: $15 for Lighthouse members, $20 for nonmembers. Students $5 with valid ID.
