SUMMARY:Boutelle-Day Poetry Center Poetry Reading: Gail Mazur ’59
DESCRIPTION:In her landmark collection Land’s End: New and Selected Poems (The University of Chicago Press, 2020), activist, poet, and Smith College alum Gail Mazur uses descriptive-meditative narratives to weave the past and present together and interrogate loss and art. The National Book Award Citation for Mazur’s 2001 collection They Can’t Take That Away from Me praised her work as “Colloquial as well as eloquent, pitch-perfect no matter how delicate her material… She gives us the exact ‘feel’ of contemporary life in our disquieting republic, the uncanny way in which love, hope, and endurance are shot through by contingency, dread, and estrangement.” Mazur has received fellowships from the National Endowment for the Arts, the Bunting Institute of Radcliffe College, and Radcliffe Institute. She currently teaches at Boston University’s MFA Program in Creative Writing and at the Fine Arts Work Center in Provincetown where she has served for many years on the Writing Committee.\nGail Mazur’s reading will be livestreamed on Facebook and YouTube on December 7, 2021 at 7 p.m.\n
