The Clark Art Institute hosts poets Iain Haley Pollock and Nathan McClain in the Manton Research Center auditorium for a free poetry reading. Pollock reads poems from his most recent book, Ghost, Like a Place, and from a forthcoming collection. McClain, whose poetry has been described as “no-nonsense, meat and potatoes, good gotdam poetry,” also reads from his work. The two poets then discuss their stylistic differences and conceptual overlap when it comes to poetry, language, race, and W.E.B. Du Bois’s concept of double consciousness. A Q&A and book signing follow the event.
