In this episode of Bookmark with Don Noble, Don Noble talks with distinguished American poet Galway Kinnell, whose long career made him one of the most admired poetic voices of his generation. Kinnell, whose Selected Poems won both the Pulitzer Prize and the National Book Award, was also a MacArthur Fellow, a former Vermont State Poet, and a Chancellor of the Academy of American Poets. Known for poems that explore marriage, children, the body, mortality, animals, the natural world—and, memorably, oatmeal—Kinnell brings warmth, humor, and moral seriousness to this conversation about poetry and the lived experiences that give it power.
