This conversation with Daniel is about his poetry and his new book, as you’d expect, but I think the most important part of the conversation is about place and belonging and what it feels like to lose that. Our discussion about the experience of divorce though the eyes and heart of a child is also meaningful, if brief. I hope you benefit from this conversation as much as I did and I’m grateful to Daniel for the time.

And as always, I’m grateful to you for listening and reading.
