American poet and 2020 Nobel Laureate Louise Glück has passed away. She was something of a house favorite here, so we thought we'd share a rebroadcast of the time Jeff and Rebecca talked about the life and work of Louise Glück, plus an extended discussion of her 1993 poem, “Vespers.” RIP, Louise Glück, we are so grateful for your work and your life.
