Founded in 1996, National Poetry Month is a monthlong celebration of — you guessed it — all things verse.
To celebrate the month, MashReads and Strand Book Store are proud to host Writing and Resistance, a night of poetry readings and conversation featuring a bevy of talented New York poets. The event is April 25 in New York City at 7:30pm ET at The Strand Bookstore in Strand’s 3rd floor Rare Book Room. (Directions here).
