Ada Limón + January Gimlet
from The Poet Salon Hosted by The Poet Salon
O hi there, it's us, The Poet Salon, back in your ears with our third season—and what a season it is! We're kicking things off with the incomparable Ada Limón. After some quick updates from us, we discuss the virtues of poetic "play" before conversing with the one-and-only Ada about the human condition, carrying grief, and Kentucky. ADA LIMÓN, a current Guggenheim fellow, is the author of five poetry collections, including The Carrying, which won the National Book Critics Circle Award for Poetry. Her fourth book Bright Dead Things was named a finalist for the National Book Award, a finalist for the Kingsley Tufts Poetry Award, and a finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award. She serves on the faculty of Queens University of Charlotte Low Residency M.F.A program and lives in Lexington, Kentucky. JANUARY GIMLET: a bright, easy-to-mix cocktail with gin, cranberry juice, and lime.
