For the Poetry Cafe online discussion group during this Asian American Pacific Islander Heritage Month, we will read and discuss Li-Young Lee's evocative, mystical poetry. Lee moved to the U.S. as a child from mainland China - where his father had been personal physician to Mao Zedong before the family's exile. With many volumes of poetry and multiple honors, Lee's influences include classical Chinese poetry.
Please register online.
A handout of poems will be provided to registrants prior to the event; print copies will be available at the information desk of the library.
