HOLIDAY POST 2009
 


“FIVE GOLDEN RINGS”
DAY 5
The contour of the land is an aid to the army; sizing up opponents to determine victory, assessing dangers and distance. "Those who do battle without knowing these will lose."
                                                                                                 ― Sun Tzu, The Art of War

readings from wheeling motel
franz wright’s recent release featuring musicians 
daniel ahearn and michael rozon   

The readings were made in the poet’s home in Waltham, MA in May of 2009 and the music was recorded in Los Angeles over the following months.  Wheeling Motel is Wright’s tenth collection of poetry and he gives us an exquisite book of reconciliation with the past and acceptance of what may come in the future.  The poems are recited by Franz Wright himself and set to original music. The artists are pleased to share their work with troops this holiday season.  For more, visit Readings From Wheeling Hotel. Also available from your favorite online bookseller. Lovely performance, though, and wonderful to be able to participate online. Thank you, Mr. Wright!
