“Finding Father”—Join four poets in a journey beyond Hallmark holiday tributes to fatherhood for an engaging presentation of poems celebrating and suffering the fathers in our lives, at Longfellow Books, One Monument Way, Portland, on Thursday, June 18, at 7 pm. Local poets Michael Macklin, Betsy Sholl, Martin Steingesser and Judy Tierney will read and present poems about fathers from their own writings and those of other poets. Admission is free.
“This will be a more nourishing bowl of soup than the usual holiday fare for Father’s Day,” says Martin Steingesser, coordinator and participating poet in the program. Each poet will read one or two poems of their own and one poem by another poet about fathers or some aspect of fatherhood.
