Key West Literary Seminar

At today's first panel discussion, entitled "Voice in Poetry," Billy Collins started by asking panelists Meghan O'Rourke and Kevin Young to read a poem. In the spirit of newness, Kevin announced, he would read a poem about the birth of his son. He then produced his iPhone and read the poem directly from it. Surely an endorsement deal with Apple can't be far behind. 

The journal of the Key West Literary Seminar features recordings from our audio archives, exclusive interviews, essays, news about the Seminar, and dispatches from Key West's literary past and present. It is created by Arlo Haskell. Send email to arlo [at] kwls [dot] org

Each January, we explore a different literary theme through lectures, panel presentations, readings, informal gatherings, and discussions. In January 2011, we explore food in literature with our 29th annual Seminar, THE HUNGRY MUSE.
