Episode 80: Reviewer Roundup w/Ashley Hales and Christian Lingner

The Englewood Review of Books Podcast

Joel hosted a conversation with two ERB reviewers, who each recently reviewed new books about the intersection of creativity and faith. They discuss the craft of poetry, their personal experiences with creative slumps, how certain books and poems do (or do not!) aid the creative process, and what this all means about humans, belief, and existing in God's creation. It was a fun, honest, and open discussion. Enjoy!
