Poetry in 1960 Live from the Future!

Kelly Writers House at University of Pennsylvania will be streaming their symposium "Poetry in 1960" live at 6pm EST tonight, Monday, December 6th. Hosted by Writers House faculty director Al Filreis, the symposium invites eleven poets to each contribute a critical essay on a poem or collection to mark its 50th anniversary. This will most likely turn up on the amazing resource PennSound eventually, but why not catch it live while you can? The match ups:

• Ron Silliman on The Opening of the Field by Robert Duncan
• Rachel Blau DuPlessis on Second Avenue by Frank O'Hara
