Description

Lauren Camp selects poems that each inhabit a place, a music, another person—shaping a cosmos large or small in language. She introduces Beckian Fritz Goldberg synchronizing past and present (“Black Fish Blues”), Olga Broumas moving through shadows toward individual lives (“The Moon of Mind Against the Wooden Louver”), and Lisel Mueller cherishing names as a beginning (“Naming the Animals”). Camp closes with her poem “Ode to Two,” where land, house, and lovers are celebrated by light.

Listen to the full recordings of Goldberg, Broumas, and Mueller reading for the Poetry Center on Voca:
Beckian Fritz Goldberg (1994)
Olga Broumas (1988)
Lisel Mueller (1981)
