Three Pennies for your Thoughts

Please check out the 150th edition of The Threepenny Review, with contributors including Atsuro Riley, James Longenbach, Kay Ryan, Dean Young, and me, among others. My poem "Darwin's Conjecture" is one of the few included on the website as sample pieces, so if you have a chance, please check it out.

Reading by Ryan

Here's a very charming reading followed by an interview with Kay Ryan, newly-named Pulitzer Prize winner. The inimitable Atsuro Riley introduces and interviews Ryan in this Lannan Foundation podcast that was taped only last week on Wednesday the 13th. Don't miss Kay Ryan's thoughts on lightness and coldness in poetry, as well as her delightful discussions of her own uses of rhyme and humor.

And if you are frustrated trying to get published, you don't want to miss the conversation part of this event. Available as downloadable podcast, and also as direct online listening.
