Have you seen the moon? What do you want from this provincial life? How much risk can we allow in this careless, rotten world? These are just a few of the many questions readers will encounter in celebrated poet Kate Baer’s new book, How About Now.
As the bestselling author of What Kind of Woman, And Yet, and I Hope This Finds You Well, Kate’s latest collection continues her thoughtful explorations of modern womanhood. She comments on the ever-present tension between the body and the mind. She celebrates relationships with love and loved ones. She ruminates on the growth of her children—and herself. Each poem is a tiny mirror made of ink and promise, asking to be engaged and looked at with curiosity—and asking us to find the courage to ask questions ourselves, perhaps most prominently, how about now?
In this interview, Kate shared more about her relationship with time, the importance of plugging into our communities, poetry as a vehicle for growth, and the ongoing journey of learning to let go. This episode also opens with a story by https://slowstoriespodcast.com/kate-baer/
