Description
Description
W.H. Auden's famous poem "Musee des Beaux Arts" comments on suffering as depicted by Breughel and other Old Masters. Poet Lucia Perillo extends this conversation in her poem "Rebuttal," from her newest collection, "Inseminating the Elephant" (Copper Canyon Press, 2009). Our literary producer Elizabeth Austen tells us more. Lucia Perillo has published five collections of poetry, including "Luck Is Luck" (Random House, 2005), which won the 2006 Washington State Book award and the Kingsley Tufts prize. A book of essays, "I've Heard the Vultures Singing: Field Notes on Poetry, Illness, and Nature;" was published in 2007. Lucia is a former MacArthur fellow and lives in Olympia, Wash. Her reading was recorded April 16, 2009 at Open Books.
