Abstract

Poet Charles Simic engages students and faculty in conversation. A casual affair, this event took place in the afternoon of October 21, 2008, in advance of Simic's formal reading which took place later that night. Questions touch on the use of memory, mood, and narrative in Simic's poems as well as the creative process.
