LIVE from the NYPL | Recorded live from the New York Public Library, Trustees Room, on March 16, 2018.
Poetry, to Billy Collins, is a journey, “the result of many contrivances ranging from rhetorical modulations to leaps of fanciful conjuring and sudden shifts in time and space…Poetry invites us to travel into new realms…Insofar as it is the only history we have of the human heart, poetry can carry us into the history of feeling and connect us to that largest of communities.” The former Poet Laureate and NYPL Library Lion will take you on a journey up and down the meter and verse of his own poetic life.
