Woken up in the sun: a conversation with Samantha Giles and Jenn McCreary
Update: 2019-04-23
Description
In Episode 61 of PennSound podcasts, Samantha Giles visited the Kelly Writers House during her reading tour last December to talk with Jenn McCreary about her new collection, Total Recall, which was published by Krupskaya Press and which Daniel Borzutsky has described as a book that "powerfully and strangely melds autobiography, poetry, ethnography, philosophical inquiry, and testimony." In this PennSound podcast, Giles talks about child-raising as "durational performance"; about studying with Juliana Spahr at Mills College; and about the role of research in the writing practice that produced Total Recall, which Giles tells us is "a book that centers itself around memory but when memory is impacted by trauma and the ways in which that trauma unwrites the memories in one's own brain."
