The Center for the Book, in collaboration with New Hampshire Humanities and UNH, and thanks to a grant from the Library of America invites you to join us in a celebration of Latino Poetry here in the Granite state. Our celebration will center around Latino Poetry: The Library of America Anthology, edited by Rigoberto González, 2024. In early 2025 public libraries around the state will be hosting Variations on a Theme: Local Conversations about Latino Poetry events. Each of these conversations will focus on a particular theme and will center on the poems in Latino Poetry: the Library of America Anthology. Sets of Latino Poetry will be loaned to each library for use in their program thanks to the support of New Hampshire Humanities and Gibson's Bookstore. Links to each of the hosting libraries and a full schedule of events is at https://www.nhsl.dncr.nh.gov/latino-poetry.

The Pease Public Library will host a conversation on the theme of Music & Performance on Wednesday, March 19th at 6PM in our Community Room. Copies of the book will be available for check out by late-February and will be available on a first-come-first-serve basis.
