The Analog Book Club is pleased to welcome Jacob Bachinger, local educator and Poet-in-Residence at Analog. April is poetry month and Jacob will be presenting on April 20 at 3pm on his book of poetry Earth-Cool and Dirty. Your “ticket” includes a signed copy of the book, your seat at the Analog Book Club, a presentation and meet&greet with Jacob. After a break for refreshments Members only will reconvene to reflect and share our own insights about the book.
Earth-cool, and Dirty iis a timely debut collection by Jacob Lee Bachinger, full of wisdom, and beautiful reflections on the state of humanity. It is a call to pay careful attention to the earth, to nurture it in the same way we attend to the people we love. In “My Son Asleep, Age 4,” he observes: “What no one told me,/what I’ve had to learn for myself:/to love this much is painful.”
