Meadowlands & Mythos
Bergen Community College at the Meadowlands
1280 Wall Street, 3rd Floor, Room 306
Lyndhurst, New Jersey
December 11th, 6pm
Pamela Hughes and Rachel Eliza Griffiths: a dual reading. Pamela will read parts of her long poem, “Meadowland,” which is both an elegy for the continued loss of the land & an exploration of the toxic & the playful. You’ll discover “the order of the odor & “the dank inside of adventure.” Rachel will mesmerize the listener with her incantatory poetry which explores the mythic connections of man & woman, god & animal. Her work juxtaposes domesticity–that daily dose of human sorrow–with a sense of the omniscient & the magical.
