Translating Poets Alive

Four seminal voices of American poetry—Yusef Komunyakaa, Charles Simic, Tracy K. Smith, and Anne Waldman—read excerpts of their work together with their translators, five students from the MFA in Creative Writing in Spanish at NYU.

This event took place as part of the 2012 PEN World Voices Festival.
