In The Moment … September 2, 2020 Show 894 Hour 1
Joshua Bennett is a poet, a performer, a scholar. He's Mellon Assistant Professor of English and Creative Writing at Dartmouth College and earned his Ph.D. in English from Princeton University.
His latest book is called Owed. A collection of poems that lend reverence to the plastic on your grandmother's couch...give an elegy to the police state..and much more. OWED wrestles rage into words, but with moments of love and awe for things too many people take for granted.
