Quiddity’s Poetry of War episode turns its attention to the soldier-poets of war and what their words reveal about the essence of honor and memory as well as shame and slaughter. The episode features James A. Winn, author of The Poetry of War (Cambridge University Press). Winn’s book is grounded in the belief that “poetry tells the deepest truths about war.” The episode also features original poetry ("The War Speaks") from National Poetry Series Winner Tyehimba Jess and original fiction ("Vietnam Visits Uncle Bill") from Asha Vose; each piece is performed by the artist.
