An Evening with Indiana Poet Marianne Boruch
Join us on November 13th for a reading and reception with Indiana poet Marianne Boruch. Refreshments served. Free and open to all.
Marianne Boruch has written eleven books of poems, most recently Bestiary Dark (Copper Canyon Press, 2021) about the astonishing wildlife in Australia in the age of fires and climate change; four essay collections, including Sing by The Burying Ground (Northwestern University Press, 2024); two memoirs, The Glimpse Traveler (Indiana, 2011) about a hitchhiking trip in 1972, and The Figure Going Imaginary (Copper Canyon, forthcoming March 2025) which includes her journal notes from Purdue’s “Faculty Fellowship in the Study of a Second Discipline” where she was given a semester in the IU/Purdue Medical School’s gross human anatomy course (aka: the cadaver lab), and also a Life Drawing class in Art & Design on campus which fueled her 8th poetry collection, Cadaver, Speak. She is currently at work on her 12th book of poems, tentatively titled “In the Winter Ruins.”
