Nov. 18, 2018. Ada Limón reveals the persistence of hunger, love, and joy, the dizzying fullness of our too-short lives in The Carrying. In a world where facts are easily manufactured and ruin is easily achieved, Tom Sleigh’s House of Fact, House of Ruin urges toward a different freedom. In Things as It Is, Chase Twichell lifts up the joy of the moment while mourning a changing world. Kevin Young speaks to the way personal experience is shaped by culture, and vice versa in Brown, recalling his own Kansas boyhood alongside the histories of Emmett Till and Booker Wright.
