In the first of several shows recorded in New York and Boston, WordTemple host Katherine Hastings introduces KRCB-FM listeners to Pui Ying Wong and Tim Suermondt.
Wong, whose poetry has appeared in a wide variety of noted journals, is from Hong Kong and the author of the honest and moving book of poems Yellow Plum Season. She lives in Brooklyn with her husband Tim Suermondt.
Suermondt's poetry has also appeared in several renowned literary reviews. His latest published collection, Just Beautiful, is warm-hearted and funny.
