The Chronicle's memorial evening for Ferlinghetti

APR 28 2021

Two months after Ferlinghetti's death in February 2021, the San Francisco Chronicle staged an evening of poetry, song and readings in his memory, with Tongo Eisen-Martin and Jack Hirschman among the participants. It records how the city's living poets accounted for the man who published Howl and kept the shop open for sixty-eight years.
