00:00:48.430 --> 00:00:51.290 align:middle line:84%
And that reading is open to

00:00:51.290 --> 00:00:52.630 align:middle line:90%
I hope you can come to that.

00:00:52.630 --> 00:00:59.190 align:middle line:90%

Edward Field comes to

00:01:01.440 --> 00:01:05.500 align:middle line:90%


00:01:05.500 --> 00:01:08.110 align:middle line:84%
His work has been widely
anthologized, appears

00:01:08.110 --> 00:01:11.500 align:middle line:90%
in many little poetry magazines.

00:01:11.500 --> 00:01:18.130 align:middle line:84%
His most recent book is a
collection of Eskimo songs

00:01:18.130 --> 00:01:20.800 align:middle line:90%
and stories in translation.

00:01:20.800 --> 00:01:23.260 align:middle line:90%

"Variety Photo Plays."

00:01:31.435 --> 00:01:33.940 align:middle line:90%


00:01:33.940 --> 00:01:37.420 align:middle line:84%
It's very painful
for me to announce

00:01:37.420 --> 00:01:43.240 align:middle line:84%
that some person ripped
off a "Variety Photo

00:01:43.240 --> 00:01:46.240 align:middle line:90%
Plays" from the Poetry Center.

00:01:46.240 --> 00:01:50.620 align:middle line:84%
Mr. Field was kind enough
to loan us his last copy.

00:01:50.620 --> 00:01:55.120 align:middle line:84%
So if you were the person
who borrowed the book,

00:01:55.120 --> 00:01:57.930 align:middle line:84%
or, if you know who
borrowed the book,

00:01:57.930 --> 00:01:59.680 align:middle line:84%
would you please try
and get it back to us

00:01:59.680 --> 00:02:02.620 align:middle line:84%
so that we can give it to
Mr. Field in the morning.

00:02:02.620 --> 00:02:06.160 align:middle line:84%
We've got a big mailbox
right beside the steps,

00:02:06.160 --> 00:02:07.750 align:middle line:84%
and we very much
would appreciate

00:02:07.750 --> 00:02:10.389 align:middle line:90%
having the book back.

00:02:10.389 --> 00:02:13.450 align:middle line:84%
It was taken so that
students who were interested

00:02:13.450 --> 00:02:15.880 align:middle line:84%
did not have an opportunity
to read the work,

00:02:15.880 --> 00:02:19.150 align:middle line:84%
and we are very
embarrassed about it.

00:02:19.150 --> 00:02:21.680 align:middle line:90%


00:02:21.680 --> 00:02:24.890 align:middle line:84%

in classes for
the last two days.

00:02:43.490 --> 00:02:46.250 align:middle line:84%
