Tonight, poetry lovers need to head over to Mercury 20 Gallery for a reading by award-winning poet Geoff Bouvier.
For the uninitiated, Geoff Bouvier was the Roberta C. Holloway visiting poet at the University of California, Berkeley in the fall of 2009. His first book, Living Room, was selected by Heather McHugh as the winner of the 2005 APR/Honickman Prize. His second book, Glass Harmonica, is due out next year from Quale Press.
In the fall of 2010, Geoff Bouvier will curate a reading series at Mercury 20 Gallery, featuring some of the most prominent poets in the country.
