Diane di Prima, San Francisco Poet Laureate Emeritus, launches her new collection The Poetry Deal (San Francisco Poet Laureate Series No. 5, City Lights Publishers, 2014) in the company of the legendary QR Hand. Both are treasured, original voices with decades of influential work to their credit including four or five decades here in the Bay Area.

Joining Diane and QR is the very wonderful piano improviser and composer Walter Earl.
