In the session, Lowell Calling, Chath will read two poems from one of the famous "Lowell" poets: James Russell Lowell, Amy Lowell, or Robert Lowell - a family, after whom, Lowell, was named. With a group of other Lowellian poets, Chath will also read one or two of his own poems to demonstrate this continued connection poets of today have with the rich heritage of the Lowell family poetry in Massachusetts.
