Rumpus Book ClubAimee Nezhukumatathil Interview
Over at HTML giant Roxane Gay interviews Aimee Nezhukumatathil, shedding light on the poet’s influences—from the natural world and family, to language, and more. The conversation turns to her third book, Lucky Fish, and the process of assembling a collection of poetry.
Nezhukumatathil on writing:
“I love that moment of writing when I surprise myself, either through a particularly juicy metaphor or memory, and the very real sense of getting to relive a moment yet another time, with new wisdom and experience collected and spun in a new way, so it almost becomes a second or third life lived.”
