Poetry Reading - The Nutmeg Anthology: Contemporary Poems of Connecticut

The Nutmeg Anthology is a collection of poetry from Connecticut poets and beyond speaking about the neighborhoods, weather, landscape, and history of our state—pages and pages of contemporary poetry painting all the nooks and crannies of home.

A description of the book from the editor:

“A small state large with history, landscape, spirit, and talent, Connecticut is the focus of this poetry anthology. Dozens of contemporary poets who live in or have connections to Connecticut contributed to this collection. A captivating read that highlights the diversity and humanity to be found in Connecticut, this book will appeal to anyone who lives in or has visited the Nutmeg State.”
