The first Sunday of each month at the mosaic cafe
have been moved to Coffee Et Cetera.
That's at 2744 North Campbell Avenue.
That's on the east side of the street
just before you get to Glen.
And their next reading will be this Sunday night, November
6th, at 7:30 PM, and it will be poetry and prose.
The readers are Barry Briggs, Barbara Kingsolver,
Sandy Florence, and Hannah Laura Ratti,
and those readings will be on the first Sunday of the month
beginning this week.
Our next reading will be one week from tonight, November 9,
in the Terrace lounge of the Student Union,
and it will be four student readers.
Maureen Brown, Alicia [? Patal ?],, Andrew Crockett,
and Michael Nicely.
And our last reading for this semester
will be two weeks from tonight in this auditorium,
and this is a reading that was not on your original schedule.
John Logan will be reading for us, that's November 16,
in this room.
On the refreshment table in the hall
I have placed a stack of poetry contest entry rules and forms.
The deadline for the contest is the last day
of classes, December 7, and the judge this year
will be Gerald Stern.
It is for students enrolled in the university
in the current semester.
You know you have a great treat tonight.
Someone admired Carolyn Forche's work
so much that they borrowed it from the Poetry Center.
So if you find that you accidentally borrowed the book,
could you quietly put it in the mailbox for us.
Her two collections of poetry are Gathering the Tribes, which
was the winner of the 1976 Yale Series of Younger Poets Award,
and The Country Between Us, which
was the 1981 Lamont selection from the Academy of American
Poets Prize.
Also, University of Pittsburgh Press
has published her translations of the poetry
of Claribel Alegria called Flowers from the Volcano.
As you know, Miss Forche has also
been a observer for human rights organizations in El Salvador,
and she has consented after the reading tonight
to accept questions from the audience.
So it's a great pleasure for me to get to hear her again
and to spend some hours with this very fine lady.
Miss Carolyn Forche.

Thank you very much.
