\"Sharon-Olds\"<\/a>

A young Sharon Olds.<\/p><\/div>\n

We’ve had a fantastic and busy week here at BU Creative Writing. \u00a0The Writers at the Black Box reading was on Tuesday, which featured fiction MFA Caroline De Lacvivier and poetry MFA Jess Stokes, as well as fiction alum Dariel Suarez<\/a>. \u00a0Last night, we got to hear Sharon Olds<\/a> and Renee Emerson<\/a> read at the Robert Lowell Memorial Poetry Reading: such a treat! \u00a0Both poets were so warm and engaging, and have “kindred imaginations,” as Robert Pinsky puts it–both of them read from work that was intimate and lyrical and deeply personal.<\/p>\n

Tonight, we’re headed to the Breakwater Reading Series at 7. \u00a0Come hear some new work by students from Boston’s MFA programs!<\/p>\n

Here are some literary links to start out your weekend:<\/p>\n

A breathtaking poem by Renee Emerson<\/a>, the first one she read to us yesterday evening.<\/p>\n
