You Are Here [ShortCuts]

This ShortCuts minisode listens to one of the January readings that we heard about last time: a reading by Muriel Rukeyser that took place on January 24, 1969. Along with listening for mentions of January in the recording, this minisode listens when Rukeyser’s reading enacts the very connection that she describes as being created between the poet and the audience during a live reading. The audio for this ShortCuts minisode is cut from the recording of Muriel Rukeyser’s reading in Montreal on January 24, 1969.
