Book Blessing & Poetry Reading: 

ten-cent flower & other territories by Charity E. Yoro

Friday, Nov 17 | 7pm | Sou’wester Lodge

Free & open to the public in the Sou’wester Lodge!

Join Portland-based writer Charity E. Yoro for an intimate reading featuring selections from her newly released poetry collection, ten-cent flower & other territories (First Matter Press, Sept 2023). Born and raised on the eastside of O’ahu, Yoro’s writing explores what is lost in lineage, translation, transaction, and seeks reclamation through mapping. ten-cent flower & other territories is her debut collection and has been called “an astonishing achievement of a book” by Tupelo Press editor, Kristina Marie Darling. All are invited to this celebration of words! Light refreshments provided.
