À propos
Join award-winning poet, Fern G. Z. Carr, for Poetry as Compact Storytelling. Carr is the author of Shards of Crystal (Silver Bow Publishing, 2018) – a book described as "a metamorphosis of darkness to light that moves readers to the brink then snatches them back."
You are invited to hear her present poems from Shards of Crystal and the fascinating stories behind them. Fern will follow with an interactive audience question and answer session as well as a book signing.
