LISTEN to my conversation with poet, editor, translator, lawyer and champion of the environment, Elizabeth J. Coleman, on her wildly relevant and beautiful anthology, HERE, Poems for the Planet, published by Copper Canyon Press in April, 2019. HERE, edited by Coleman, features a dramatic foreword from His Holiness the Dalai Lama; Coleman’s superb international selection of 125 living poets including U.S. Poet Laureates, Pulitzer Prize-winners and youth poets; and a guide to activism from the Union of Concerned Scientists.
