We're so excited to launch our Spring Podcast! Tune in here to listen to the brilliant Arji Manuelpillai talking with Karen McCarthy Woolf about the PBS Spring Choice, Unsafe.
"Mothers! Resist
the Fence, that shall appear
overnight, blocking
your son's memorial bench"
In this episode, Karen and Arji discuss nature and gentrification in the US and UK, white space, phone photography as vernacular, and the political weight of fences. It's an absolutely fascinating conversation on the poet's process when writing this collection, which urgently speaks to the present moment.
"I think what Unsafe is doing is kind of pressurizing the way we might think poetically about nature, and our relationship with it, and our access to it." — Karen McCarthy Woolf
