Poetry Reading and Open Mic at the Bookery bookstore in Manchester NH with David Banach.
Wednesday Feb. 11, at 5PM
David Banach is a philosopher and a poet, though often not in that order. He has taught for many years at Saint Anselm College and lives in Goffstown,NH, where he tends chickens, keeps bees, and watches for lessons in the sky. He likes to think about Dostoevsky, Levinas, and Simone Weil and is fascinated by the way form emerges in nature and the way the human heart responds to it. He has published over 70 poems in various journals, and is editor of Touchstone, the journal of the Poetry Society of New Hampshire. He is a Pushcart, Best of the Net, and Forward Prize nominee, and is a past president of the Northern New England Philosophical Association. He is the author of How to be Good (2025) from Bee Monk Press.
