Description

The Anthony Hecht Poetry Prize reading pairs judge and MacArthur Genius grant recipient, Heather McHugh, with 2013 winner Geoffrey Brock for an evening of poetry.

This annual reading celebrates a poet who has published no more than one previous book of verse. Pairing Brock’s bold new voice with McHugh’s acclaimed poetic perspective, tonight’s reading brings together two great writers with the intent to, in McHugh’s own words, “follow every surge of language, every scrap and flotsam.”
