Join Dan Rosenberg, Tompkins County Poet Laureate and TvO member, for an evening reading and discussing a handful of great poems from across the rich and complicated tradition of modern Jewish poetry, including work by Emma Lazarus, Paul Celan, Dan Pagis, Yehuda Amichai, and others. This event will begin with readings of the poems, followed by a group-led discussion of them. We may also explore a poem by the great Palestinian poet Mahmoud Darwish, and a poem of Rosenberg’s that engages directly with issues of Jewish identity and heritage.
