“I am not a summer lover at all. I really hate summer even under the best of conditions and this summer was nightmarish,” said our guest this month, Jodeen Revere. “So the fall is my time. September is like a big exhale of relief.”
It’s the second week of September and we’re hearing writing along the theme of shadow this month. Today, Jodeen Revere shares a poem by Tomás Baiza, titled “Six Hours.” Baiza is the author of the novel, Delivery, and the mixed-genre collection, A Purpose to Our Savagery. Tomás’s manuscript Mexican Teeth won the 2024 Eliud Martínez Prize and was published by Inlandia Press in February.
