S4E2 | The Same IKEA Bed

Update: 2023-11-15

Description

A stealth poetry reading inside a bustling IKEA. Poet Maggie Millner reads her own poem (Issue no. 239, Spring 2022), as well as two more from the archive: Toi Dericotte’s “Bird” (Issue No. 124, Fall 1992) and Rainer Maria Rilke’s “Death” (Issue No. 82, Winter 1981). This episode was produced by Helena de Groot and John DeLore, and was sound-designed by John DeLore. Our theme song this season is “Shadow,” composed and performed by Ernst Reijseger.
