   • Join New Dominion for the release of Gregory Orr’s new poetry collection, Selected Books of the Beloved. This in-person event is ree and open to the public. For more than a decade, Gregory Orr has been writing toward “the Book:” an imagined tome containing every poem and song ever written. Drawing from a rich tradition of lyric poetry, Selected Books of the Beloved is the culmination of that project, and more—it is a celebration of the transformative power of poetry, and of our extraordinary capacity to feel and to love.
