Poetry Workshop: Robin Myers

Rudy Lozano Public Library

1805 S Loomis St, Chicago, IL 60608

Poetry is often talked about as the art of the “I”: a vessel for capturing and refracting the poet’s intimate observations, experiences, and emotions. But poetry, like fiction, presents endless opportunities for complicating and deepening the “I” – as well as endless ways to explore perspective, relationality, and form. In this workshop with poet and translator Robin Myers, participants will engage with poems in the second and third person; discuss voice and point of view; and experiment with form and sound as a way to expand (or condense) the scope of their poems.

Presented in partnership with Chicago Public Libraries.
