A few words about the final reading ...
I think “triumph” is the best word to describe the final evening of The Poet in Paris program. The student-poets read their recent work in the upstairs room of Shakespeare and Company Books— an honor in recent years conferred upon some of the most respected living writers on the planet — with the spires of Notre Dame in the window behind them and a standing-room-only audience in front of them — in fact, the crowd snaked down a narrow aisle into the backroom and even onto the staircase — enthralled by their poetry, their originality and verve. No less an aficionado of the Anglophone scene in Paris than Adrian Leeds pronounced it THE best poetry reading she’s ever attended, period. I couldn't agree more. Kudos to all of you!
