Kari Edwards (1954 - 2006)

From Kevin Killian:
Yes, it’s true about kari’s death and here in the Bay Area we are all still in shock as I imagine her friends all over the country and elsewhere are as well. Fran Blau asked me to spread the word about, well, something you can do in kari’s memory if you care to, and that’s to make a donation to Cinema Paradiso, the international cinema in Auroville, the visionarycommunity in southern India where kari and Fran had spent a happy year + together.
Checks should be made out to:Auroville Maintenance Fundand sent to:Financial ServicesTown Hall AnnexAuroville 605101Tamil NaduIndia
Please note that it’s to support “Cinema Paradiso” and that your gift is in memory of kari edwards. Thanks everyone. If anyone needs an update or whatever feel free to get in touch with me,
Kevin K.
From Geoffrey Gatza:
Tragic News - kari edwards
It was announced over our many poetry lists that a dear friend and brilliant poet, kari edwards passed a short while ago. I was working with her on her latest book, having been blue for charity. We were set to release it shortly. And with no motive other than coming together for her we have placed this book online as an ebook at her BlazeVOX [books] webpage.

This is simply a stunning book and I urge you to spend a moment with kari’s poetry. I don’t know what else to say as I am numb.
Best, Geoffrey
