Award-winning poet and poetry editor of The New Yorker Kevin Young launches his newest collection Night Watch, a book of personal and American experiences, both beautiful and troubling, touching on the generative cycle of loss and renewal. Following on his exquisite Stones, Young’s new collection, written over the span of sixteen years, shapes stories of loss and legacy, inspired in part by other lives. A collection that will stand as one of Young’s best—Night Watch shapes sorrow with music, wisdom, heartache, and wit. Young reads from and discusses his poetry with an audience Q&A to follow.
