Laura Sims on Catherine Wagner at the Poetry Project:
“Stacy Szymaszek, in her black Buddha-emblazoned t-shirt, returned to the podium to introduce Catherine Wagner. She talked about Wagner’s ‘singular[ity]‘ and her ‘removal of inhibitions’ – hers and ours – while, appropriately, referencing Freud. She made an apt comparison of Wagner to Lorine Niedecker – if Niedecker ‘had…kept a secret sex diary,’ that is – because of Wagner’s ability to use rough, raw language in tightly tuned lines.”
