Diesel, A Bookstore in Brentwood is pleased to welcome Keven Bellows to the shop to discuss and sign her newest collection of poems, The Blue Darter on Sunday, September 12 at 3pm.

Keven Bellows, poet, writer, editor, was born 73 years ago in Plattsburg, New York where she grew up on the shores of Lake Champlain. The family, headed by a NY State Supreme Court Judge, and the locale of the Adirondack Mountains figure prominently in her first collection of poems, Taking Your Own True Name. Her second collection, The Blue Darter, published this year, explores the deep joy of her wonderful 36-year marriage, and the anguish of caring for her husband, legendary editor Jim Bellows, as he slowly disappeared into Alzheimer’s disease.
