Brittney Corrigan, The Ghost Town Collectives

Tuesday, October 22, at 2 PM on KPFK, my guest for the final abbreviated but enthusiastic Fund Drive edition (thanks for the support!) is poet and, lately fiction writer Brittney Corrigan. Her recent poetry collection Solastalgia explored themes of ecological crisis and now, with The Ghost Town Collectives, she creates in short albeit very poetic short stories, a vision of the transformations around us, an emotional and political and mythic apprehending of the Anthropocene investigating and interrogating and imagining and observing the real-time, real-life global climate crisis in all its facets. Corrigan is the author of the poetry collections Daughters, Breaking, Navigation, 40 Weeks and Solastalgia. Her debut fiction collection, The Ghost Town Collectives, is out now from Middle Creek Publishing.
