I attended the first Bay Area memorial celebration for Czeslaw Milosz,
held today at the San Francisco Main Public Library. I took pictures (Milosz Memorial Celebration - a photoset on Flickr) and plenty of notes on the poems that were read. Between listening to the Michael Krasny's program on Czeslaw Milosz
last week, revisiting some of my own favorite Milosz poems, learning
about many other poems to savor (out of a massive lifetime of work),
I'm thoroughly and happily re-immersed in the poetry of Milosz.
