To celebrate the publication of my fifth book of poetry, This May Sound Familiar, we will hold a party at the Northampton Center for the Arts at 33 Hawley St. on December 10, 2022 at 7pm. The event opens with a set by Now’s the Time Jazz Quartet (pictured), featuring Michael on clarinet and bass clarinet. Immediately following will be a poetry reading from the new book and perhaps some brand new poems too. There will be books for signing and for sale, also food and beverages. Admission is free.
