Updated Friday 11\/3 at 10:30 a.m.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, Charif Shanahan had to cancel his festival appearance. This event will feature Anis Mojgani and Mindy Nettifee in conversation.<\/h3>\n

In his sixth poetry collection, The Tigers, They Let Me, <\/em>Anis Mojgani<\/a>‘s verses create the yearning for rebirth, thriving love\u2014a love of self and tenderness in a sorrowful world. In Trace Evidence<\/em>, Charif Shanahan<\/a> articulates the need we all share for real intimacy and connection, and proves, time and again, that the true cost of our separateness is the love that our survival requires. Moderated by Mindy Nettifee<\/a> (Open Your Mouth Like a Bell<\/em>).<\/p>\n

\"\"In his sixth poetry collection, The Tigers, They Let Me, <\/em>Anis Mojgani’s verses create the yearning for rebirth, thriving love\u2014a love of self and tenderness in a sorrowful world.\u00a0Drawing inspiration from Rexroth and Lorca, Mojgani explores the joys of desire, both in the presence of others and during moments of solitude. These new poems reflect a touchless world, navigating the balance between loneliness and being alone. Mojgani invites readers on a voyage of intimacy, planting ideas with hope and openness, ready to witness the flowers that bloom along the way.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnis Mojgani is a gale force talent, a twirling dervish of lyric & the body’s music,\u00a0a poet who gleefully spurns the boundaries of poet.\u201d
\n<\/strong>\u2013 Patricia Smith, Kingsley Tufts Winner & Four-Time Individual Winner of the National Poetry Slam<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"coverIn\u00a0Trace Evidence<\/em>, the urgent follow-up to his award-winning debut\u00a0Into Each Room We Enter without Knowing<\/em>, Charif Shanahan continues his piercing meditations on the intricacies of mixed-race identity, queer desire, time, mortality, and the legacies of anti-Blackness in the US and abroad. At the collection\u2019s center sits \u201cOn the Overnight from Agadir,\u201d a poem that chronicles Shanahan\u2019s survival of a devastating bus accident in Morocco, his mother\u2019s birth country, and ruminates on home, belonging, and the mysteries of fate. With rich lyricism, power, and tenderness,\u00a0Trace Evidence<\/em>\u00a0centers the racial periphery and excavates the vestiges of our violent colonial past in the most intimate aspects of our lives. In a language yoked equally to the physical and metaphysical worlds, the poet articulates the need we all share for real intimacy and connection, and proves, time and again, that the true cost of our separateness is the love that our survival requires.<\/p>\n

“Revelatory and pulsating with truth, Trace Evidence<\/em> is a dangerously wise book of poems. Each poem is full of muscular music and meticulously carved out of longing as they ask, not just why we live, but how we live, and for whom. Wholly human and deeply rooted in attention, this book is for anyone who has ever questioned where they belonged.”
\n\u2014Ada Lim\u00f3n, 24th U.S. Poet Laureate and author of The Hurting Kind<\/em><\/h3>\n
