Meet the Poet: Casey Carter

Avid Bookshop is honored to host a special reading and book signing with poet Casey Carter. Join us Thursday, August 26, 2012, from 6:30pm to 7:30pm.

Currents was written in 2001, on a secluded beach consisting of tunneled sea grapes, prickly pear, and breezy Australian pine; a calming retreat of fresh air, sunshine, and blue green salt water in the keys of health, vigor, and youth.

The style and nature of the book change sporadically or swirl together form poem to poem as the ebb and flow of Currents and all the name implies. Furthering the dualistic themes of Aflame and Falling Leaves Observation -- Currents is a coming to terms and coming of age tome.
