Today's Poem and Literary Notes

  • The Writer's Almanac
    Tuesday's Poem: "Plastic Beatitiude" by Laure-Anne Bosselaar, from The Hour Between Dog and Wolf. Tuesday's Literary Notes: It's the birthday of Gary Joseph Whitehead, born in Pawtucket, Rhode Island (1965). He's a poet, and he's also cruciverbalist — that is, a person who constructs crossword puzzles. The crossword puzzles that he's created have appeared in newspapers across the nation, including The New York Times.
