Readings announced for Poetry Month

Joseph Legaspi and Sarah Gambito will present their poetry as part of SUNY Fredonia’s  observance of National Poetry Month on Tuesday, April 15, beginning at 7 p.m., at 202 McEwen Hall. An amazingly resourceful poet, Mr. Legaspi writes about the mysterious and the magical in the most common and overlooked objects, as did his mentor, Pablo Neruda. In her first book, “Matadors,” Ms. Gambito presents vivid juxtapositions of a wide range of objects – star fish, Tagalog, frisson – while an element of friction adds a political dimension to her writings.
