For each episode, four friends and colleagues in the world of poetry and poetics convene to collaborate on a close (but not too close) reading of a single poem. They talk through and around the poem, sometimes beyond it, often disagreeing, always excited. After perhaps twenty-five minutes the verse opens up to new possibilities and gains new readers and listeners.

Listeners? All the PoemTalk poems are available in recordings made by the poets themselves as part of the PennSound archive.
