b'The Cuban American civil engineer turned writer, Richard Blanco, straddles the many ways a sense of place merges with human emotion to make home and belonging \\u2014 personal and communal. The most recent \\u2014 and very resonant \\u2014 question he\\u2019s asked by way of poetry is: how to love a country? At Chautauqua, Krista invited him to speak and read from his books. Blanco\\u2019s wit, thoughtfulness, and elegance captivated the crowd.'
