Paisley Rekdal joined us in studio to talk about her newest book, West: A Translation. West: A Translation was Utah and Utah Humanities’ Adult selection for the 2023 Library of Congress, long listed for the National Book Award in Poetry, and so much more.
You can find the full text of the book and videos that accompany each poem and translation at westtrain.org. We encourage you to buy the book and experience the multi-media art on your own.
As always, an enlightening podcast with Rekdal.
