Moe's Books 2476 Telegraph Ave., Berkeley, 7:30-8:30 p.m. If you come, leave enough time to find parking in the campus area.


At Moe's Books on Nov. 19th, this Thursday evening, I'll be reading from my book of poems, "and Aeneas stares into her helmet," with music. The book asks where the war lives in us as citizens. http://moesbooks.com/shop/moes/readings-and-events.html
