On June 30, 4-6 p.m. there will be a Poetry Reading by none other than Aruna Gurumurthy, author of 6 going on 7 books of poetry. She will be reading from her newest book Simplicity Beckons and selected poems from her other books.

As one who has listened to Aruna read, I can say it was a treat. Later, I interviewed Aruna and you can see the video here:
