Show Notes

The very first Penteract Poetry Podcast, hosted by Anthony Etherin, and featuring an interview with Christian Bök, author of Eunoia and winner of the 2002 Griffin Poetry Prize. Topics of conversation include: the indestructible poems of Christian’s Xenotext Project; the dichotomy of negative capability and the egotistical sublime; poetry in the age of social media (and the success of Rupi Kaur); and poetic pedagogy.
