…just like Mary Oliver does in that one poem about geese.
Poets are known to be delicate flowers, ill-equipped to handle the harsh realities other creative types take in their stride (deadlines, having a job, “constructive” feedback etc.). In this talk, one such delicate flower will heal your relationship to criticism through the power of her words, just like Mary Oliver does in that one poem about geese.
About the speaker
Alice Allan has published two collections of poetry and makes the podcast Poetry Says. Does this make her a poet? Only the ghost of John Keats can say.
Meanwhile, she is an expert in the musical stylings of Tori Amos, the 2006 Nancy Meyers Christmas movie The Holiday, and the long-running podcast Roderick on the
Line, which is really just two white guys talking to each other.
