The Poetry of Eros with Marie Ponsot

“Celebrate an early Valentine’s Day with an afternoon of love poems, from ancient Greece to New York now. Readings will include Sappho, John Donne, Emily Dickinson, Djuna Barnes, W.H. Auden, and a variety of contemporary poets. Special attention will be paid to the shifty mysteries of resonance in the words “I,” “love,” and “you.””
