Harvard Book Store welcomes local poet D. M. Aderibigbe for a discussion of his latest poetry collection, How the End First Showed. Crafting raw memories into restrained and compact verse, D. M. Aderibigbe traces the history of domestic and emotional abuse against women in his family. A witnessing son, grandson, nephew, and brother, he rejects the tradition of praise songs for the honored father, refusing to offer tribute to men who dishonor their wives.
