Susan Musgrave - Episode 5

Author of over 30 books—poetry, novels, non-fiction, cookbooks and more—Susan Musgrave joins semifinalist Isadora Mota Pinheiro and host Meagan Black to discuss writing and not writing; addictions and overdoses; and using poetry to communicate, rebel and survive. “Question:” is a poem written as part of a poetic voiceover for the art documentary Heroines (2001), about sex workers in Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside, which was commissioned by the director, Stan Feingold. The series of poems was also published in a number of places, including in Musgrave’s 2011 book Origami Dove. This is an English episode and is Episode 5 of Voices / Voix Podcast.
