\u201cA revolutionary poem will not tell you who or when to kill, what and when to burn, or even how to theorize. It reminds you… where and when and how you are living and might live, it is a wick of desire.”\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0-Adrienne Rich<\/h1>\n

Today is the birthday of Adrienne Rich<\/a>! \u00a0She would have been eighty-five. \u00a0Here, she reads\u00a0“Diving into the Wreck.”<\/a><\/p>\n

And now some links for your weekend:<\/p>\n

One of my\u00a0favorite essays<\/a>\u00a0by Joan Didion (not that I have read that much of her work).<\/p>\n

Come hear current MFA students and alum at Writers at the Black Box<\/a> next Tuesday night!<\/p>\n

BU alum Mimi Lipson will be reading<\/a> at Newtonville Books on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0website<\/a>\u00a0for Miranda July’s collection of stories is just delightful. \u00a0The book itself is delightful too (or at least I think so).<\/p>\n

In fact, I assigned this<\/a> to my class this year.<\/p>\n

According to Steve Almond, you should seriously read\u00a0Stoner<\/a>\u00a0<\/em>right now.<\/p>\n

Anne Lamott tells us how to handle haters.<\/a><\/p>\n

Make a cocktail Hemingway<\/a>\u00a0would be proud of.<\/p>\n

“Live like a mighty river”: a letter<\/a> from Ted Hughes to his son.<\/p>\n

Neat idea for a notebook<\/a>, ya?<\/p>\n

Have a wonderful weekend, all!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
