Poet Devin Johnston reads from "Far-Fetched"

Jan 28, 2016

Far-Fetched, Devin Johnston’s new collection of poems, follows the contours of Appalachian hillsides, Missouri river bends, and remote Australian coastlines, tuning language to landscape. “Here we have layers of history, etymology, the vagaries of feeling,” observes fellow poet Maureen McLane. It is poetry meant to be heard. This series of readings is organized and hosted by Stephen Yenser, poet and professor at UCLA.
