In the Attempt Is the Success: A Poet's Way of Life

Presented By
Molly Peacock

“To me,” Molly Peacock says, “a sonnet makes impossible emotions possible.” The revered poet, biographer, essayist, and short fiction writer, a former president of the Poetry Society of America, discusses and reads from her poetry and talks about the motivation she has drawn throughout her life from her motto: “In the attempt is the success.”

RSVP for this program

Earlier in the day, from 10:30 a.m. to noon, Peacock conducts a poetry workshop in the Plaza Branch’s lower-level Cohen Center. The session, Scare the Sonnet Into Working for You, is for writers of all levels. RSVPs are encouraged.

Both the workshop and evening event are co-presented by the David W. Newcomer IV and Gene Ann Newcomer Family Foundation Fund.
