ep. 106 - Duel! Stephen Dunn vs. Kay Ryan
Update: 2025-06-27
Description
What happens when you pit a hoops-loving narrative philosopher against a tight-lipped Zen wit with a side hustle in metaphysical mischief? You get this episode of The Poetry Space_, where Pulitzer Prize winners Stephen Dunn and Kay Ryan go poem-to-poem in a lyrical Duel that’s part therapy session and part riddle wrapped in enjambment.
Dunn brings conversational wisdom and emotional nuance to the ring. Ryan counters with compressed clarity and punchlines precise enough to crack granite. Who wins? Who learns? Who makes the best metaphors out of antiquated outergarments? Tune in to find out.
