I felt blessed when
Pennsylvania Gazette editor John Prendergast invited me to write a 3,000 word story about Greg Djanikian, who trusted me to teach at Penn, who talks with me many spring-semester Tuesdays when I arrive early to teach, who inspired a key character in my forthcoming Florence novel
One Thing Stolen, and who writes some of the most gorgeous poetry anywhere. I wrote of his most recent book,
Dear Gravity, here.
To write this story I spent an afternoon in Greg's beautiful home (filled with the artistry of his wife), interviewed Stephen Dunn, Julia Alvarez, Al Filreis, and others, and returned to a dear student, Eric Xu, who brought valuable insights to the Greg's beloved teaching.
The story can be found
here.
