POETRY IN THE GARDEN ft. Elizabeth Bradfield – SEPTEMBER 29

Join us at the Somerville Community Growing Center for a special installment of Poetry in the Garden on Tuesday, September 29, from 6:30–8PM to celebrate Elizabeth Bradfield's newest collection, SOFAR. We will have a featured set by Elizabeth Bradfield from her new work followed by an open mic for anyone to share a poem (can be original or a cover). Open mic hosted by Aparna Paul. See you there!

In SOFAR, poet-naturalist Elizabeth Bradfield attends our current ecological and historic moment, her decades-long queer love, a lifetime of work on boats, and her body’s shifting currents with wry yearning and linguistic delight. SOFAR is an acronym for the “sound frequency and ranging channel,” a deep layer of oceanic water that enables sound to travel vast distances, and, drawing upon her deep knowledge and experience of the sea, Bradfield plumbs what can be heard by listening across the vast distances of our lives―within our memories and larger histories, between strangers and beloveds, and to the more-than-human world. SOFAR is a finalist for the Audre Lorde Prize from the Publishing Triangle. Porter Square Books will be on site with books for sale!
