Poetry reading on USU Campus

Alicia Ostriker read from her book of poems on Tuesday, April 2 to USU students. The poems were great and I am glad to know I was in support of the Department of English, and their speakers. Ostriker has been nominated twice for National Book Awards. I thought the reading was interesting because this was the first time I have attended a reading like this. I have heard of them but never been to one until now. I was impressed with the content of Ostrikers poems. It opened my mind to different ideas and helped me think and look at things in a different way. I was impressed by Ostrikers work and would be interested in reading the books which she has written. I believe she has written eleven different volumes of poetry and I am sure, from what I observed that each volume is worth reading.
