A little about our October poets:
Marcyn Del Clements has lived in Claremont since 1975. With her husband Richard, she has raised and released two beautiful daughters; raised and buried two rambunctious black labs. Now Marcy lives in her house alone with fifty some koi and goldfish in her swimming pond. Over time she has seen some 780 works in print. But Shinrin-Yoku, her first book, has taken thirty years for the birthing. The book contains all the prose and poems to appear since the early 90s in Appalachia Magazine, and was published by their poetry editor, Parkman Howe.
Judith Terzi is the author of Museum of Rearranged Objects as well as of five chapbooks, including Casbah and Ghazal for a Chambermaid. Her poems appear in a wide array of journals and anthologies. A poem, "Ode to Malala Yousafzai," was included on a "Heroines" episode of BBC/Radio 3's "Words and Music." She taught French for many years in Pasadena, California, as well as English at California State University, Los Angeles, and in Algiers, Algeria. A new chapbook, Now, Somehow, will be published in 2022.
This reading will take place in person in the Louise Roberts Room at the Claremont United Church of Christ, 233 W. Harrison Ave. in Claremont, CA.
