Daniel talks with Ilyse Kusnetz, winner of the 2014 T.S. Eliot prize for her poetry collection, "Small Hours." Ilyse talks about why history and historical figures play a major part in the collection, and how her early love of science fiction interweaves with her sense of history. Her works also tackle injustice, oppression, and the fear of technology. http://ilysekusnetz.com/
For our Poem of the Week, Ilyse reads "Match Girls" from her award-winning collection, "Small Hours."
