Speaker: Poet Michael Comiskey
Poet Michael Comiskey will talk about and read selections from his book of Northern Appalachian poetry using traditional and modern poetic forms to survey the human and natural landscapes of that unique and often overlooked region. Topics are as varied as the delicacy of the region’s wildflowers, the devastation wrought by mountaintop removal mining, Northern Appalachian folklore, and the state of the region’s working class.
