SUMMARY:Reading at The Twig for the release of Bearing the Mask featuring Carmen Tafolla
DESCRIPTION:This reading of Bearing the Mask: Southwestern Persona Poems will feature poets from San Antonio and across the state reading their own work and others’ from this acclaimed anthology. Readers will include Carmen Tafolla\, 2015 State Poet Laureate of Texas and author of the foreword for Bearing the Mask. \nThe second in a series of anthologies of poetry of the Southwest by Albuquerque-based Dos Gatos Press\, Bearing the Mask presents a diverse collection of personae from before European contact to the present\, from the historical to the mythical\, and from the famous to the obscure\, woven together to form a vibrant\, complex history. \nAbout Bearing the Mask:\nTo quote from the foreword by Texas Poet Laureate Carmen Tafolla\, “The range of voices here is as beautiful and translucent as a rainbow. From Cochise to Calamity Jane\, Navaho Code Talkers to Japanese internees\, Devil Girl and Old Man Gloom\, slaves and stunt pilots\, Paiutes and migrant mothers\, Annie Oakley and Georgia O’Keeffe\, security officers and French tourists\, Gregorio Cortez\, La Llorona\, and Cynthia Ann Parker—all come to life here\, speak their own truths and their own sacred space in these poems.” \nBearing the Mask offers rich perspectives on life in the Southwest\, garnering praise in reader reviews that call it “fascinating” and “an amazing book for poetry and history lovers.” \nReaders \n· Christa Pandey \n· Mobi Warren \n· Linda Simone \n· Cindy Huyser \n· Carmen Tafolla \n· Gloria Amescua \n· Cyra Dumitru \n· Christine Wenk-Harrison \n· Anjela Ratliff \n
