Read In
Last week marked the third annual Hispanic Heritage Month Read In, sponsored by Lincoln City Libraries and hosted at Bennett Martin. We had a lovely time in the pastoral courtyard—Bennett’s best kept secret— and reading poems from Latin America and taking in a visceral performance by poet Dominic Garay with accompanist Oscar Rios. Thanks again, Libraries! The Read In gets better every year. Check it out on Channel 5…they taped it!
Here’s the Read List:
Celestial written and performed by Dominic Garay
En Paz by Amado Nervo, read by Marissa Torio
Diario de Bucaramanga (excerpt) by Louis Peru de Lacroix, read by Olga Soto
Ultimas Golondrinas by Mario Benedetti, read by Angel Freytez
