Charles is a poet, retired litigator, and visual artist. During a long mid-life illness, he started writing poems and painting — a creative turn that stuck. His poetry has since appeared in a wide range of magazines and journals, including Garrison Keillor’s Writer’s Almanac, and his artwork has been exhibited in many shows. His first poetry collection, Blue for Oceans, won the 2011 PEN New England Award for best book of poetry by a New England author.This week however, we are going to be discussing his newest collection of poetry, Again. In his work he charts a profound journey through love, loss and the complicated grace of survival. These stories traverse his life, from his childhood’s glorious moments, to the raw territories of grief, that spread into how family shapes and also haunt us.These poems range from California beach towns to the New England woodlands, but despite the distance, remind us that even our deepest wounds can reveal moments of startling beauty. Join us as we have a heartfelt conversation that revolves around his collection of poetry Again and explore what his experiences and the connections between his past and present play in his creative work.This is Charles Douthat Unbound.Purchase your copy of Again on amazon or directly from Unbound Edition Press at https://www.unboundedition.com/product/again-charles-douthat-poetry/ For more from Unbound Edition Press, visit us at https://www.unboundedition.com/
