John Manesis Poetry – Read Posthumously by Stephanie Manesis – Spirit Room

October 20, 2023 @ 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm

John Manesis was a prolific poet in Fargo and published his 8 th poetry book three months
before he passed away in October of 2021. He did not get a chance to read from this 8 th book
and his daughter, Stephanie Manesis, will be doing a reading from his poetry book, entitled
“Please Remember Us.” This reading will take place on the second anniversary of John’s passing,
Friday October the 20 th at 6:00 PM in the Spirit Room.
Perhaps it is optimism, compassion, humor or use of language or all of
these that have led audiences to say after John Manesis’ public readings,
“I have not appreciated poetry before nor have I understood it. Now I shall
try again.” Catherine Cater, Late Professor Emerita, NDSU.
Please join us on Friday, October the 20th to celebrate John Manesis’ poetry and
legacy! Wine and appetizers provided.
