Bread Loaf Writers’ Conference presents “A Belief in Angels: Joy in Poetry” with Victoria Chang

Middlebury Bread Loaf Writers’ Conference presents “A Belief in Angels: Joy in Poetry,” a virtual lecture by Victoria Chang on Aug. 17 at 11 a.m. (EDT).

From the organizers:

What is a poem of joy? Or a line of poetry that evokes joy? In this talk, we’ll think through what joy means, what a poem of joy might look like, and how a poem of joy might affect its readers. In the process, we’ll look at poems by various poets such as Frank O’Hara, Robert Hass, Li-Young Lee, Ross Gay, Elizabeth Bishop, and many others.

Financial aid is available for the Lecture Series; contact us for more information at blwc@middlebury.edu.
