An Interview With Philip Levine

"I just wanted to tell the stories of people whom I found extraordinary and dear. I saw them pass from the world, and nobody said a goddamn word about them, so I said, 'Well, this is a subject matter that is mine and mine alone.'"

Ezra Pound, “Lament of the Frontier Guard”

Read aloud by Robert Pinsky, Wen Stephenson, and Charles Wright
