SUMMARY:“ten-cent flower and other territories” With Poet Charity E. Yo
 ro
DESCRIPTION:On Saturday\, June 13th\, 2026 the Seaside Public Library will 
 welcome poet Charity E. Yoro for a talk and readings from her debut poetry
  collection\, "ten-cent flower &amp\; other territories." The event will t
 ake place at 2:00pm in the Community Room and there will be a time afterwa
 rds for a Q&amp\;A. Additionally\, Beach Books will be available for book 
 purchases after the event.\nCharity E. Yoro’s "ten-cent flower &amp\; ot
 her territories" sets the notion of Hawai‘i as a "taste of paradise" alo
 ngside the acknowledgment that this homeland is “a museum of pretty / st
 olen things.” In this collection that is at once searing and tender\, Yo
 ro reckons with the effects of conquest and tourism on the islands\, writi
 ng of and through erasure\, interruption\, and displacement. This question
  of legacies—what painful histories and what gifts the coming generation
 s will inherit from us—is at the heart of ten-cent flower &amp\; other t
 erritories. Through poems that range in form from haiku to crosswords to a
 becedarian primers\, Yoro asks us to consider the urgency of language: wha
 t words will offer those who come after us\, and will these words tell the
  truth of our histories\, in all their terrors and delights? The collectio
 n won the Stafford/Hall Award for Poetry at the 2025 Oregon Book Awards.
