Anselm Berrigan reads at City Lights

On December 9, Anselm Berrigan will read from his newest collection of poetry, Free Cell, at City Lights Bookstore. Free Cell (http://www.citylights.com/book/?GCOI=87286100708280) is Berrigan's most ambitious work to date, a spiritual autobiography wrapped in an exploration of form. His work combines the freneticism of his New York environment with oblique humor, political angst, and a reflective, lyrical interrogation of his own subjectivity.
