Since May 2020, the WCPA has helped a few community poetry readings with virtual events. The Thirsty Lab poetry reading, normally based out of Princeton, Mass., was one of our first. On Tuesday, September 28, 2021, Jeffrey Thomson will be the featured reader.

Jeffrey Thomson is a poet, memoirist, translator, and editor, and the author of ten books including Half/Life: New and Selected Poems from Alice James Books, the memoir fragile, The Belfast Notebooks, The Complete Poems of Catullus, and the edited collection From the Fishouse. His newest book is Museum of Objects Burned by the Souls in Purgatory (due out in 2022 from Alice James Books). He has been an NEA Fellow, the Fulbright Distinguished Scholar in Creative Writing at the Seamus Heaney Poetry Centre at Queen’s University Belfast, and the Hodson Trust-John Carter Brown Fellow at Brown University.
