C.D. Wright reads her poem 'Our Dust' from IN PERSON: 30 POETS filmed by Pamela Robertson-Pearce. Pamela Robertson-Pearce has been filming poets reading their work for Bloodaxe's archive and DVD-books. We will be posting further films of individual poets. We are also showing a 45-minute film (featuring 20 poets from the IN PERSON archive reading their work) at various independent cinemas, arts festivals and other venues around Britain and Ireland this year. This poem by C.D. Wright is from her book LIKE SOMETHING FLYING BACKWARDS: NEW & SELECTED POEMS (Bloodaxe Books, 2007), and from her US edition STEAL AWAY: NEW & SELECTED POEMS (Copper Canyon Press, 2003). C.D. Wright was born and brought up in the Ozark Mountains of Arkansas. We filmed her in New York in 2006.
