Dan Vera is featured poet November 6 at Harrisburg's Midtown Scholar
“The poetry of Dan Vera is clear, strong, honest and funny. He’s the sharp-eyed observer in the corner who doesn't say much but makes every word count.” --MartÃn Espada

“To read Dan Vera is to believe the world is actually a good place after all – a place where the reputation of poetry is redeemed with humor and kindness. In the deepest part of the heart where we truly reside, there is always a wish that poetry will rinse off artifice. This is it.” --Grace Cavalieri
