Episode 135: Molly Spencer
b'
Molly Spencer is a poet based in Michigan. The poems in her collections In the House and Hinge engage with chronic illness, divorce, domesticity, motherhood, and the ways that our lives don\\u2019t always work out the way we expected them to. In our conversation, we talked about dissolution, the uses of poetry, ways of knowing, and speaking unlovely truths. Then for the second section, we talked about attention\\u2014both the kind of attention we\\u2019d like to cultivate in our own lives, and what kind of attention we ask of our readers.
