    Rockland Maine poet laureate emeritus Kendall Merriam reads from his recent and past works

    On November 21, 2015, Rockland poet Kendall Merriam visited WRFR's studio and read three poems and the introduction to his 1980s work Medvedb's Journal

    The reading starts with the recenty written "Bear Dance" a poetic tribute to Merriam's long time friend the late Gunnar Hansen. This is followed by a reading of Hansens introduction to Merriam's book "Medvedb's Journal". It is entitled Medved dances. Next: "An open Poem to ISIS" written in Thomaston in 2015. Followed by "At the cafe" written in paris in 2013.

    Medved's Journal was published by Blackberry Books of Nobleboro Maine

    A reviewer at the Bollard wrote:
    "I suppose one would call Medvedb’s Journal a novel, though there’s no plot, hardly any dialogue, and really only one character: Medvedb, a very horny, schizophrenic poet who thinks he’s both a bear and the president of the United States."
