Poetry 4x4: A Poetic Bridge New York – Bucharest

The biggest Romanian-American poetic contingent in years descends upon New York and Bucharest for two successive weeks of readings and performances hosted by popular dens of the spoken word scene. Organized in partnership with Bowery Poetry and the National Museum of Romanian Literature, the events will mingle four American poets, Mason Granger, Gabriel Ramirez, Jess Rizkallah and Myles Taylor, with four Romanian poets, Svetlana Cârstean, Adela Greceanu, Claudiu Komartin and Andra Rotaru, who have made a name for themselves on both sides of the Atlantic.

The New York leg of this poetic journey unfolds between June 21-24, 2019. You can meet this 8-strong lyrical commando at Berle’s Poetry Shop, Bowery Poetry, and the Poetry Project.
