About the event

How to Read a Book (of Poetry) featuring Alice Notley's Descent of Alette
Join All Ways Writing Collective and Big Red Books for the fourth installment of our How to Read a Book (Of Poetry) series in which we read aloud award-winning collections of poetry using intuitive forms of engagement. Facilitated by Lily Greenberg, this is a great event if you feel like you don’t “get” poetry and would be interested in experiencing poems in a new way; also great if you’re already a poetry fan and want to experience poems in community.

This time, we’re reading Alice Notley’s Descent of Alette—a fabulous book that uses experimental forms to operate as a “score for a voice.” A book meant to be read aloud!

The program is free. To register, purchase the book from Big Red Books at 15% off (or a similar book if you already own this one). You can also RSVP at bigredbooks.net/events and we’ll hold a copy for you to purchase at the event!
