RiffRaff Books presents Laura Marciano reading from Opening Ceremony (in conversation with Sylvia Vaccaro)
Opening Ceremony is the second collection of poetry from author Laura Marie Marciano. The book follows the speaker of her first book Mall Brat from the 2008 recession to the current downward mobility for many aging millennials. Finding absurdity in the Fourth of July, backyard pools, surveillance mirrors, and Sol De Janeiro, the poems navigate the pain and promise of letting go of expectations as one seeks motherhood.
