YouTube Description
as posted by the channelaking “personal essay” a step further than most, Addonizio, a noted poet, fiction writer, and teacher, adds a refreshing touch of the outrageous to her picture of the writing life. Embracing the epithet once bestowed on her by a snarky critic, this female Bukowski is as irreverent and funny as her namesake. In this collection of essays the former Guggenheim fellow and two-time Pushcart-award winning writer recalls her parents—her mother was a Wimbledon champion—her experiences with online dating, her thoughts on contemporary poetry, and much more.
