Join us for an evening of poetry from Young’s recently released volume “Museum of the
Soon to Depart” (Carnegie Mellon University Press). This complex and moving collection
uses the metaphor of a museum as a scaffolding for her exploration of life, grief, motherhood
and art.
“Young’s poetry is one more example of the terrifying beauty that American poets seek to
make; she enters a portal to the sublime and takes us along for the tour.” -Patricia Spears Jones

Andy Young will be joined by talented local poet Andrea (Andi) Young, known to many of us
from her open mic readings around Wilmington.
