Poetry Reading & Discussion: Octavio Quintanilla & Cyrus Curtis Cassells
Join poets Octavio Quintanilla and Cyrus Curtis Cassells for a moving reading and discussion that spans borders, memory, and the human heart. In Las Horas Imposibles / The Impossible Hours, Quintanilla guides readers across the Rio Grande and into the intimate and perilous journeys of migrants and lovers, blending lyric and concrete forms in a bilingual exploration of love, loss, and belonging. Cassells’ retrospective, Everything in Life is Resurrection: Selected Poems, reflects four decades of poetic mastery, confronting history, grief, and the beauty and terror of the world.
