A conversation with Alyse Knorr, 'achiever' (to cite her Super Mario Bros 3, where I first encountered her work and reviewed it for The Pixels). In which we discuss: - Sweetbitter Podcast, with new episodes coming soon about Mary Magdalen and a fourth season in the works - Switchback Books, which she edits with her wife - Regis University, where she teaches alongside colleagues such as Russ Arnold - her poetry, research, and the novel she's writing - Annotated Glass and Sappho fragment 31 - 'Bright Star,' Keats, Eliot, Carson's Autobiography of Red; Gilgamesh and Enheduanna - 'Anatomy Exam' - Ardor, a book of eco-queer domestic life and love - Every Last Thing, a book of tantrums and embarrassed apologies - Micaela Tore's MA thesis on Copper Mother (and around here you'll get a musical interlude from moonbowmusic) - Topophilia: Elizabeth Bishop's 'The Map'; Henry Jenkins' 'Complete Freedom of Movement'; Sean Fenty's nostalgia piece in
