Join Julia Figueras during the noon hour to celebration National Poetry Month.

In time for National Poetry Month (April), the Poetry Foundation is offering a series of 5-minute radio pieces that feature some of today’s most accomplished and innovative poets reading and sharing insights on new and as-yet unpublished poems.  PoetryNow is an acoustically rich source for listening in on the writing process of living poets you know and for discovering new voices.
