Poetry with the Petersons

Join us at Feldman's Books for "Poetry with the Petersons," an intimate evening of verse featuring siblings Katie and Michael C. Peterson on July 19th from 6-7:30pm. Katie, author of acclaimed collections like "Fog and Smoke,” “Life In A Field,” and winner of the UNT Rilke Prize, will share her evocative work rooted in California landscapes. Michael, Curator of the George Elliston Poetry Room at the University of Cincinnati, will present selections from his recent edition of Tom Postell's poems, published by Pleiades Press in the Unsung Masters Series.

The Menlo Park natives will read from their respective works, discuss their poetic journeys, and explore the intersections of family, place, and language in their writing. This rare joint appearance offers a unique opportunity to experience the distinct voices of two accomplished poets shaped by shared origins. Don't miss this celebration of sibling artistry and the power of poetry to illuminate our shared experiences.
