Dany Laferrière, Cécile Mainardi, Michael Ondaatje, and Jacques Réda read from their works of poetry at Maison de la Poésie on Sunday, Sept. 22.
Join us at the home of poetry, the Maison de la Poésie, for an afternoon of beautiful readings with four extraordinary poets. Contemporary Poets says Michael Ondaatje, "writes for the eye and the ear simultaneously." Cécile Mainardi, joins us from her home in Nice and is the author of more than 10 collections. Her most recent book, Rose activité mortelle, was awarded the Prix de l'Académie française. Grégoire Leménager, in the Nouvel Observateur, says Dany Laferrière's recent, The Enigma of the Return, which moves fluidly between free verse and prose, "is a magnificent book." Winner of the Grand Prix de Poésie del'Academie française and the Prix Goncourt for poetry, and author of some 75 collections, Jacques Réda takes us out into the streets of Paris and the world of music. Not to be missed.
