New video: collaborative close reading of “The Snow Man”

The other night the Writers House community once again celebrated wintry doldrums with its annual “Mind of Winter” event, featuring home-made soup (warm!) and bread (warm!) and a fire going in our fireplace (warm!)—and readings from cold and snowy and hibernal texts.

We always open this event with a collaborative close reading of Wallace Stevens’s mind-bending poem about frigid conditions, “The Snow Man.” Click the YouTube player window and skip forward to 6:26 and you’ll see me leading that discussion for 2020. Enjoy!
