The Erotics of Rocks: An Unexpected Inspiration with Carole Greenfield: April 18

How a geology textbook inspired my poetry journey: TBZ member Carole Greenfield had been writing poetry for as long as she could remember, but it was finding a geology textbook while working at a science research company, more than thirty years ago, that provided the ‘Aha!’ moment and changed the direction of her writing. Come learn about how Carole found a way to use geology as a metaphor to honor and to mourn, to praise and to elegize the people and places that have marked her heart. You’ll never look at rocks the same way again!
