Thu 8 Apr, 8:15 pm. A former U.S. Poet Laureate, Louise Glück writes poems which are "rooted in landscape and weather and, increasingly, in intimacies of the heart," wrote the late Stanley Kunitz. "Everything she touches turns to music and legend." Her new collection is A Village Life. Iraqi poet Dunya Mikhail has published four collections in Arabic and two in English translation, most recently Diary of a Wave Outside the Sea. "These are political poems without political rhetoric, Arabic poems without Arabic poetical flourishes, an exile's letter with neither nostalgia nor self-pity, an excavation of the ruins of her homeland," wrote the judges of the Griffin Prize, for which Mikhail was short-listed in 2006.

Wed 14 Apr to Sun 25 Apr. Written by British playwright David Hare, “Amy’s View” takes place in Berkshire and London, England. David Hare is also the author of “The Vertical Hour,” the screenplay for “The Reader,” and “Plenty.” Over the course of sixteen years, the characters in “Amy’s View” engage in a running debate about the respective virtues of the stage versus those of the media arts.
