معلومات عن هذه الحلقة
We’re pleased to introduce Poetry Northwest’s new audio podcast series, Seconds. Each episode will feature a second book author in conversation with our Editor, Keetje Kuipers, about their experiences writing and finding a home for their sophomore effort.
As challenging as it can be to bring a first book of poems into the world, the second book presents new hurdles and its publication often comes with a lot less fanfare. Seconds aims to shine a light on authors celebrating the recent publication of a second collection while asking the difficult questions about the journey to the second book, including what it’s like to start over at the first blank page and finding the path to a press willing to take on a second collection.
In this episode, Keetje Kuipers talks with Iain Haley Pollock about his second book, Ghost, Like a Place.
