UDs Gibbons Ruark to give poetry reading Dec. 4 1:41 p.m., Nov. 24, 2003--Gibbons Ruark, a member of UDs English department since 1968 and author of a number of prize-winning poems and books of poems, will read from his works, at 7 p.m., Thursday, Dec. 4, at the new Brandywine Hundred Library on Foulk Road in Wilmington. About his latest collection, Passing Through Customs: New and Selected Poems, the noted poet and critic X.J. Kennedy said, Gibbons Ruark is a master musician; our common language, his instrument. You would have to sift through the lifes work of a great many poets to find another hundred pages nearly as fine as these. Sponsored by the Delaware Literary Connection, the event is free and open to the public. Article by Deanna Forgione, AS 05 To learn how to subscribe to UDaily, click here. |
