October 7th forum announcement

Dear Poetry Aficionados,

IBPC: Poetry & Poets in Rags


It's a terrific week in news for poets and poetry. We have follow-up articles to last week's headlining event from the Nobel people in Sweden. We have more on the life of American poet Hayden Carruth in Poetic Obituaries--and we also have a review by him in Great Regulars and a poem too. Oh, and Thursday coming is not only when we may expect the announcement of the non-American Nobel winner, but it will be National Poetry Day in the UK.

We lead off, however, with an article on American poet Billy Collins. And be sure to check the Back Page of News at Eleven. I found that I was part of that story, and you might find yourself or someone you know mentioned too. (And no, it's not the Nobel for Literature. It includes American poets.)

Yours,
Rus
