Christine Gosnay on the Carnival of Speculation in Her Mind


Christine Gosnay

The author Christine Gosnay joins the TOA editors Avni Vyas and Nik De Dominic to talk about the sensuality of particle physics, private mythologies, Robert Lowell, and learning you’ve been pronouncing a word wrong for years. Plus: Gosnay reads excerpts from her shimmering new TOA chapbook, “The Double Slit Experiment.”
