Forget the pies: you need poetry before the feast. Poet Anne Coray will read from her work for a City Art pre-turkey poetry night at the Salt Lake Public Library's main branch at 7:00 P.M. on November 23rd. Anne Coray's debut book of poems, Bone Strings, was published by Scarlet Tanger Books. She lives at her birthplace on remote Qizhjeh Vcna (Lake Clark) in southwest Alaska. Her poems have appeared in The Southern Review, Poetry, Seneca Review, Alaska Quarterly Review and Rattapallax, among others. She has been a finalist with Carnegie-Mellon, Water Press & Media, Bright Hill Press, as well as for the Frances Locke Memorial Award and Rita Dove Poetry Award. For several years she worked for the Bilingual Program in the Matanuska-Susitna Valley north of Anchorage. She lives with her husband, Steve, and her dog, Zipper. The event is free and open to the public. City Art is sponsored by the Utah Arts Council, the Salt Lake City Arts Council, Zoo, Arts, and Parks, and audience donations. The featured reading will be followed by an open reading. __________________________________ Yahoo! Mail - PC Magazine Editors' Choice 2005 http://mail.yahoo.com
