SPECIAL REBROADCAST: Pulitzer Prize Winner Jericho Brown Reading at the Unamuno Author Festival

A first ever Poetry Spoken Here rebroadcast! Episode 100 of Poetry Spoken Here featured Jericho Brown reading at the Unamuno Author Festival. In honor of Jericho Brown being awarded the Pulitzer Prize for poetry for his book The Tradition, we wanted to re-share this reading.

The Unamuno Author Festival took place in the spring of 2019 in Madrid, Spain.

Jericho Brown was recently awarded the 2020 Pulitzer Prize in poetry. He has also won a Guggenheim fellowship, invented a poetic form, and had his poems featured in The New Yorker, the Paris Review, and the Bennington Review among others. His latest collection The Tradition, for which he won the Pulitzer, was released in 2019 to wide praise. This reading was part of an evening celebrating of the 25th anniversary of the Civitella Ranieri retreat program.
