Broad Street Books (Middletown, CT) Reading


Featuring Tad Richards!
On the first Tuesday of every month, Broad Street Books hosts a featured poet followed by an open mic. All are welcome to come and read, recite, perform their work!
Tad Richards is the author of three books of poetry – My Night With the
Language Thieves
, Situations: a Novel in Verse, and Take Five: Poems
in 5/4 Time
. His work has been compared to Terry Gilliam, Byron,
Pushkin and Tom Waits. His songs have been recorded by Orleans, John
Hall and Fred Koller. He has written nonfiction on such diverse subjects
as poetry, music and money, if those subjects are diverse. He is the
author of a dozen or so novels, most recently Nick and Jake, a
lighthearted romp through the McCarthy Era and the CIA’s overthrow of
the Mossadegh government in Iran, which will presented this fall on the
Internet in serialized form, and as a podcast starring Alan Arkin and
Tom Conti.
Come help us welcome Tad Richards to the store and share some of your own work too!
