Jennifer Clarvoe Author Talk & Signing

September 15, 2026 | 5:00 pm EST

Bank Square Books
RSVP

Bank Square Books in Mystic, CT presents an author talk and signing with Jennifer Clarvoe for her third book of poetry, PIANO PIANO.

In PIANO PIANO, Clarvoe crafts a luminous meditation on time, loss, and the enduring power of art to transform grief into grace. These poems move with the deliberate tempo their title suggests — piano piano, slowly, gently — through landscapes both intimate and archaeological, from a father’s final breaths to ancient cursed tablets unearthed in Turkish soil.

Jennifer Clarvoe is the author of two prior books of poetry: Invisible Tender (Fordham, 2000), and Counter Amores (University of Chicago, 2011). Her awards and fellowships include the Kate Tufts Prize, the Poets Out Loud Prize for Invisible Tender, a fellowship from the Sewanee Writers Conference, a residency at the James Merrill House, and the Rome Prize in Literature. She taught literature and creative writing at Kenyon College for many years. She lives in Somerville, MA, with her husband, Tony Sigel.
