“Shift in perception is a miracle.”
Death Valley by Melissa Broder is part desert survival story, part examination of grief - mixing the absurd with the profoundly human in a feat of imagination. Broder joins us to talk about the realities of anticipatory loss, incorporating fantastical elements into the real world, including humor in her work and more with guest host, Jenna Seery.
This episode of Poured Over was hosted by Jenna Seery and mixed by Harry Liang.
