Meg Freitag Reads "Thanks" by W.S. Merwin

November's guest writer-curator on Something I Heard, Meg Freitag, reads "Thanks" by W.S. Merwin, on the theme of gratitude.

Freitag is the author of the poetry collection Edith and This Is a Book for People Who Love Dogs, an illustrated work of nonfiction.

I started working with Boise State Public Radio in 2018, first as a freelance podcaster of You Know The Place, and later as a contract producer for Reader’s Corner. The former ran for six award-winning seasons, visiting funeral homes, ostrich farms and nude retreats for the story. The latter is now in its 22nd year of interviewing NYT-bestselling, Pulitzer and Nobel Prize winning authors.
