Aimee Nezhukumatathil

Aimee Nezhukumatathil joins me to talk about writing that is guided by love, staying true to ourselves on the page, and creating work we’d want to be remembered by. We discuss the role of the senses, the joy of concrete poetry, and how to write in a way that gently taps readers on the shoulder.

Aimee is the author of seven books books of poetry and essays, including her latest book of poems Night Owl and the bestselling illustrated essay collection World of Wonders.
