Fri. 12:06 – W. S. Merwin was a poet, environmentalist, social critic, translator and more. 12/03/2021.
He absorbed elements of many cultures and integrated them into poetry that absorbs those who read him. At times angry and sarcastic, at times reflecting his profound Buddhist beliefs, he became a Nobel Laureate and Poet Laureate of the U.S. among other awards. This week, P. T. Bridgeport and Dr. Carol Andrews examine the life and work of Merwin. Listen to WRUU 107.5 FM in Savannah and globally @ wruu.org.
