Poetry Reading & Garden Party
August 30, 2021 @ 5:15 PM - 6:30 PM
Join Tamarack Grief Resource Center & poet Gillian Kessler for a poetry reading in the TGRC garden. RSVP today. Space is limited! Gillian Kessler’s new book Ash in a Tree has been lauded by many: “Wryly funny and infinitely wise, Ash in the Tree is an intimate portrait of the life-cherishing power of grief, from sharing a perfect cocktail with one’s 84-year-old mother to a ‘lemon and cement, roses and exhaust’-scented commute. “When is it long enough/to have lived long enough?” Kessler asks in one poem, offering ‘forgiveness/that’s not accusatory’ in another. Like grace, the reader leaves wishing only for more.” -Jeremy Smith, author of Breaking and Entering
