00:00:02.770 --> 00:00:05.980 align:middle line:84%
And we're very happy to present
the "Next Word in Poetry"

00:00:05.980 --> 00:00:10.450 align:middle line:84%
tonight with Srikanth Reddy,
Brian Turner, and Joshua Marie

00:00:10.450 --> 00:00:13.240 align:middle line:84%
Wilkinson, three
poets whose works

00:00:13.240 --> 00:00:18.127 align:middle line:84%
we believe herald a dynamic
new era in contemporary poetry.

00:00:18.127 --> 00:00:19.960 align:middle line:84%
They will be introduced
by graduate students

00:00:19.960 --> 00:00:23.500 align:middle line:84%
in the Creative
Writing MFA program.

00:00:23.500 --> 00:00:28.450 align:middle line:84%
Introducers are correspondingly
Arianne Zwartjes, Taylor

00:00:28.450 --> 00:00:31.030 align:middle line:90%
Johnson, and Mary Marburg.

00:00:31.030 --> 00:00:33.610 align:middle line:84%
Tomorrow afternoon, there
will be a panel discussion

00:00:33.610 --> 00:00:35.890 align:middle line:84%
at which tonight's readers
and introducers will

00:00:35.890 --> 00:00:39.530 align:middle line:84%
give their thoughts on new
trends in contemporary poetry.

00:00:39.530 --> 00:00:41.650 align:middle line:84%
And as you'll soon
hear, there are

00:00:41.650 --> 00:00:45.190 align:middle line:84%
some fundamental similarities
in their work, and perhaps more

00:00:45.190 --> 00:00:48.160 align:middle line:84%
obviously, some
fundamental distinctions,

00:00:48.160 --> 00:00:51.760 align:middle line:84%
so I suspect that the ensuing
conversation will be lively,

00:00:51.760 --> 00:00:55.620 align:middle line:84%
thought provoking, and rich,
and we hope to see you there.
