Poetry Is The Point returns in our new event space this April!  We’ll be hosting poets Diane Sahms & G Emil Reutter, hosts of the reading series “North of Oxford.” The evening will open with our Chaucer Challenge – see more below!

This event will be live at the store, in our new event space in our new downstairs.

Chaucer Challenge!

We’ll open the evening with a Chaucer Challenge – come prepared to recite as many lines from The Canterbury Tales as you can. Recitation must be from memory and in Middle English – your audience promises not to judge your accent! A fun prize for the winner.
