Eileen Myles is a Sagittarius, a poet, a novelist, a performer and an art journalist.

Their more than twenty books include Cool for You, I Must Be Living Twice, Chelsea Girls, afterglow, and MORE. Eileen has received a Guggenheim Fellowship and was recently elected a member of the American Academy of Arts & Letters.

Eileen joined me from their home in Marfa, Texas to talk about their new book of poetry, A Working Life.

“With intelligence, heart, and singular vision, a “Working Life” shows Eileen Myles working at a thrilling new pitch of their poetic and philosophical powers.”

They ALSO have a giant, beautiful, important new anthology, Pathetic Literature.

Go get both!
