<br>
We had expected to attend this Sunday's <br>
</span></font>5 p.m. Beyond Baroque reading by the <br>
transplanted Berkeleyite, Ann-Fisher Wirth, <br>
who now lives in Oxford, MS and teaches at Ole Miss. <br>
<br>
One of the highlights of Richard's six-week <br>
Southeast book tour last year was meeting Ann, <br>
her husband and son, and some of Ann's <br>
students for a great Greek dinner and poetry <br>
discussion in Oxford. Her work is terrific <br>
and varied, and, in keeping with our policy <br>
of trying to keep our posts short, we'll give <br>
you some Web links to find such Annerobilia.<br>
<br>
Please attend her Sunday reading in our absence, <br>
and everybody give her a hug from us. Were it <br>
not for some important family business of <br>
Richard's in Northern California, we'd be there, too.<br>
<br>
<a href="http://www.beyondbaroque.org/">http://www.beyondbaroque.org/</a><br>
<br>
Oh, and buy her books! Book sales help sustain <br>
all touring readers. Ann reads with Nan Cohen <br>
and there's an open mike.<br>
<br>
