Ken Babstock Interviewed for maisonneuve

Maisonneuve is posting a series of bimontly poetry podcasts. The series "attempts to reinvigorate the literary interview." Poet Linda Besner conducts the interviews, and "she not only speaks to poets about a specific poem but encourages them to act out — with all appropriate props and accoutrements — the subject of their poem." The first interview in the series is with poet and Anansi poetry editor Ken Babstock. He is the author of three collections of poetry, including Airstream Land Yacht (Anansi, 2006), which won the Trillium Book Award. The interview was conducted in Ontario Place.
