September 28: Gordon Marshall Features



Stone Soup Poetry meets from 8-10 p.m. every Monday at the Out of The Blue Art Gallery (located on 106 Prospect Street in Cambridge) with an open mike sign-up at 7:30 p.m. On September 28th, we finish the month with Gordon Marshall, who will celebrate the release of his new book and announce the winner of the first Jack Powers Stone Soup Savor Poetry Prize.

Jazz artist Joshua Jefferson called Gordon Marshall “the poet laureate of the Boston improvised music scene.” Marshall has published two books, Waterwheel and Black President and other poems, and has one forthcoming, Chord. He has worked at bookstores, financial institutions, and at a hospital. He received his M.A. in English Literature from the University of Massachusetts Boston in 2005, and continues to study literary criticism and theory independently. He lives in Boston.
