A Windsor author's debut novel is likely a little different than anything you've read before. That's because there is no reference to s*x or gender in the book. Author Jade Wallace joins us to talk about their work.

A Friend Sails in on a Poem: A poetry memoir 45 years in the making. For the last forty-five years, the distinguished poets Molly Peacock and Phillis Levin have read and discussed nearly every poem they’ve written—an unparalleled friendship in poetry. Here Peacock collects her most important essays on poetic form and traces the development of her formalist aesthetic across their lifelong back-and-forth. A Friend Sails in on a Poem offers a charming, psychologically wise, and metaphorically piquant look at navigating craft and creativity. This is a book both for serious poets as well as for anyone who wants a deep dive into the impact of friendship on art itself. Molly Peacock is the founder of The Best Canadian Poetry series and the co-founder of Poetry in Motion on New York’s subways and buses. Peacock’s poems have appeared in leading literary journals such as Poetry, The New Yorker, The Malahat Review, The Women’s Review of Books, and Plume and are anthologized in The Oxford Book of American Poetry.
