Description

Press release from Lynnfield Public Library: April 8, 2022 April is National Poetry Month! Over the past few years we've been spoiled with an abundance of beautiful, thought-provoking, and fresh poems from emerging and established poets, so we're celebrating National Poetry Month with some collections published within the last 3 years. There are far more titles published than we can include here, so be sure to stop by the Reference Desk if you'd like more suggestions. Check these out by clicking on the links below or by visiting our display in the Reading Room of the Library! If the audiobook version of a title is available, we highly recommend trying that out: in most cases it's an opportunity to hear the poet read their own work.
