Brenda Hillman

Practical Water ( Wesleyan) Brenda Hillman's work has been described as difficult and experimental, but we beg to disagree. Here, we hear some of her most accessible poems; discuss her work with Code Pink, a feminist activist group; and try to describe the way to read a so-called "difficult" poem. The live broadcast of this interview will be pre-empted by special holiday programming, but will be available in the KCRW archives.
