I really gotta check my Facebook page more often. I just saw THIS!

The Brooklyn Lyceum continues First Sundays: a Monthly Writers Series with Pulitzer prize-winning poet Galway Kinnell. THIS SUNDAY, NOV. 1, 7PM $10. 

A casual and cozy evening hosted and curated by hournalist and poet, Susan Hartman. Pulitzer Prize winning author Galway Kinnell will read, answer questions, sign
publications, and mingle in the lounge. The Lyceum is partnering with
local Brooklyn bookseller Book Court, who will be supplying Galway's
books this evening for sale and signing.

Galway Kinnell is
making a rare appearance in Brooklyn. Among the numerous honors he has
received for his poetry are the Pulitzer Prize and the National Book
Award for his Selected Poems (1980), as well as a MacArthur Fellowship.
He has published translations of works by Francois Villon, Rainer Maria
Rilke, and others, and served as a Chancellor of the Academy of
American Poets. Through his readings, and his classes at Sarah
Lawrence, Columbia University, N.Y.U., and other universities, he has
influenced generations of young writers. This evening at the Lyceum,
Galway will be reading new and selected works.

Coming to First Sundays on December 6: Vivian Cherry, a street photographer known for her work on the Lower East Side in the 1950s, and others TBD.
