ECHENBERG POETRY SERIESThe Ransom Center is home to the Dean F. Echenberg War Poetry Collection that was started in the early 1970s by Echenberg, a flight surgeon during the Vietnam War who later became the director of disease control for the City of San Francisco during the first years of the AIDS crisis. Throughout history numerous writers have tried to capture their experiences of war in language, often turning to poetry for its ability to convey intensity of feeling and for its authenticity. The common thread that runs through the collection is poetry by people who have experienced war, combatants and noncombatants alike. https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events6/banners/665f2470-4e68-11ed-b5a2-cbb4e435341b-rimg-w720-h120-gmir.jpg - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/austin/an-evening-with-ukrainian-poet-lyuba-yakimchuk/10000432066250787 - **Event Categories**: art, literary-art, entertainment, performances, music, theatre - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Austin - **state**: TX - **country**: United States - **location**: Harry Ransom Center - **lat**: 30.2843324 - **long**: -97.741221 - **full address**: Harry Ransom Center, 300 West 21st Street, Austin, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: An Evening with Ukrainian Poet Lyuba Yakimchuk - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events5/banners/6671a980e2be5c6e30f8230435f61c6a1e9f4b91abadfa44c5c7f84b515c5ab8-rimg-w1200-h600-gmir.jpg?v=1666045728 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is An Evening with Ukrainian Poet Lyuba Yakimchuk being held? - **A:** An Evening with Ukrainian Poet Lyuba Yakimchuk takes place on Tue, 01 Nov, 2022 at 05:00 pm to Tue, 01 Nov, 2022 at 07:00 pm at Harry Ransom Center, 300 West 21st Street, Austin, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing An Evening with Ukrainian Poet Lyuba Yakimchuk? - **A:** An Evening with Ukrainian Poet Lyuba Yakimchuk is organized by Harry Ransom Center. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
