Make It Memorable: Letters To Petrarch & Still By Logen Cure Tenth Anniversary Reading

Join us online for a conversation between poets Logen Cure and Executive Director Aaron Glover celebrating the tenth anniversary of two of Logen’s chapbooks, Letters to Petrarch and Still.

Letters to Petrarch, published by Unicorn Press in 2015, is a handmade hardback chapbook. Comprised of epistolary poems addressed to 14th-century Italian poet Francesco Petrarca and prayers corresponding to the canonical hours, this book recounts a single day and meditates on young love and loss. Purchase a copy here.

Still, published by Finishing Line Press in 2015, was composed during the same years as Letters to Petrarch. The speaker in this coming-of-age collection is at odds with herself and deeply concerned with relationships, desire, memory, and place. Purchase a copy here.
