William Sovern has been hosting poetry performances for 26 years. He has promoted over 200+ poetry readings in the Evansville, Indiana area.
Dr. Santosh Kumar Describes Sovern’s poetic technique as marked by innovation and experimentation. His poems reveal ‘hard, dry image’, instead of vague, facile and hollow style of the Georgian poets of the early 20th century. Consequently, Sovern succeeds in creating poems full of sharpness and preciseness.
Sovern is able to create ‘pictorially sensuous’ style revealing the effect of painting on his poetry.
He holds poetry readings with various artists at the Bokeh Lounge in Evansville, Indiana.
