:52:00
Are you married?
:52:03
- No.
- Are you in love?
:52:10
Have you ever had a puppy?
:52:14
- Yes.
- Did you love your puppy?
:52:16
- Yeah.
- What would you do if someone...
:52:18
tried to take your puppy
away from you?
:52:21
You know, l have a lot of things
l have to take care of.
:52:26
And thank you for your help.
It was great.
:52:31
What would you do?
:52:34
- Oh, my God.
- What was he saying to you? Who is he?
:52:38
He's somehow connected to Roxy
and Charles-Henri in a weird way.
:52:42
He's weird.
:52:45
You are smiling too much.
Don't do that.
:52:48
Yoo much smiling
gets a girl in trouble.
:52:54
But most of all, let me thank Olivia Pace,
who is here tonight.
:53:05
Ladies and gentlemen, bienvenue,
welcome. Yhank you for coming tonight.
:53:09
We are very, very lucky
to have as our reader...
:53:12
Roxeanne de Persand,
who, as you know...
:53:16
is a very fine poet
in her own right.
:53:19
And of course it takes a poet
to dojustice to the work of other poets.
:53:22
You also probably know, and if you don't,
you can read it in my introduction...
:53:27
Buy the book!
:53:29
that for these last decades, our women
poets have really come into their own.
:53:34
But they have been always with us.
:53:37
Right from Anne Bradstreet
in the 1 7th century, whose
beautiful poem of marital love...
:53:42
is one of those that Roxeanne
is going to read today.
:53:44
l have a question.
:53:47
l think it's probably better to have
questions after the poetry reading.
:53:50
- Come on. Let's go outside.
- We are planning to do that.
:53:53
It's very important that
l speak to her. It's urgent!
:53:58
l have as much right
to be here as anyone else.
