February 17, 2013- Kathleen Fraser Part 2

This Sunday, we played the second part of our lively discussion with Kathleen Fraser. We pick up from where we left off last week, discussing the assignment Kathleen received from Steve Benson, and continue on to talk about her encounter with Oppen's work. In his work, she discovered 'being true to the voice.' She talked about her artist books, which are comprised of poetry written off of visual art. Her book, movable TYYPE (Nightboat Books, 2011), includes poems constructed by physically taping cut up words on the wall. She talked about her experience writing in Washington at a research center for oceanography (please contact us at poetasradio@gmail.com if you know the name of this center) and her move, as a young writer, to New York City.
Please tune in next week when we play part 3 of this fabulous interview!!!
