The poetry reading marathon at St. Marks's Church was very good. I arrived after 7 PM and the place was standing room only. There were performers I heard for the very first time and were quite good. Ones that I've previously heard were even better this year.
I went into the back where books and food were being sold. I saw a lot of books i was interested in but didn't purchase. I have over a half dozen poetry books on my night stand I intend to read already. The Poetry Project will be getting a new executive direct in the fall. I'm curious as to what direction the reading marathon will go next year.
