Poetry Bus Tour - USA - To hit 50 cities in 50 days
New York,NY,USA -The Associated Press/News-Leader.com (Springfield,MO), by Hillel Italie -3 Sept 2006: -- Poetry fans, keep an eye out this fall for a Green Tortoise bus... Look beyond the bookstore or campus lecture hall. Try a ranch in Missoula, Mont.; a sushi bar in Spokane, Wash.; or a church in Providence, R.I. Peek inside this 40-foot coach, if you dare, and expect to find beds, seating areas, work stations and, at any given time, a couple of dozen road-tested poets... The 2006 Poetry Bus Tour, billed as the "most ambitious poetry tour ever attempted," is a voyage of verse that will cover 50 cities in 50 days, a pace that could wear out the most experienced politician or rock star. The tour is being organized by Wave Books, a Seattle poetry press... (Photo: by Kevin P. Casey / The Associated Press -- Matthew Zapruder (left) and Joshua Beckman co-founded the poetry tour)
