I'm particularly jazzed about this Sunday's Feast, which is free and features four super-talented poets: Kazim Ali, Paula Bohince, Katherine Dimma, and Robin Beth Schaer. This Sunday, November 13, 5-7 p.m., at CAMAJE bistro, 85 MacDougal St. betweeen Bleecker and Houston. Eats—by beloved chef Abby Hitchcock—are inexpensive, optional, and delicious. The special Feast menu includes popular favorites from the bistro's dinner and dessert menus. Listen, eat, enjoy!
