SUMMARY:Riverfront Readings featuring Maril Crabtree and Richard Newman
DESCRIPTION:Friday\, June 14th\, 8:00 PM\nThe Writers Place\nNonprofit Village\n31 W. 31st Street\, Kansas City MO 64108 \nPlease join us for our June 14th reading featuring Maria Crabtree and Richard Newman. \nMaril Crabtree’s full-length collection\, Fireflies in the Gathering Dark (Kelsay Books)\, received a 2018 Kansas Notable Books award. She has authored three chapbooks. Her book Journey will be available at the Riverfront Reading. Her poems\, essays\, and short stories have appeared in numerous journals and anthologies including Coal City Review\, I-70 Review\, Literary Mama\, Main Street Rag\, Persimmon Tree\, Poet’s Market\, and Third Wednesday. She agrees with Ed Hirsch that poetry is a “way of knowing\, of honoring our solitudes and recognizing our interdependencies” and believes that a poem’s apothecary of words\, of sounds spoken and absorbed\, can be a healing force in our culture. \nRichard Newman is the author of four books of poetry\, most recently Blues at the End of the World (Kelsay Books\, 2024)\, and the novel Graveyard of the Gods. His work has appeared in the American Journal of Poetry\, Best American Poetry\, Boulevard\, I-70 Review (featured poet)\, Innisfree Poetry Journal\, Literary Matters\, New Letters\, Poetry East\, Tar River Poetry\, and many other magazines and anthologies. He currently teaches creative writing and world literature at Al Akhawayn University in Morocco. Before moving to the Maghreb\, he and his family lived in Vietnam\, Japan\, and the Marshall Islands. In another life\, he lived in St. Louis where he served as editor of River Styx magazine. \nSuggested donations: $5 non-members\, $4 members\, $3 students \nNo one will be turned away for lack of funds
