Terry Tempest Williams on William Merwin and Becoming an Environmental Activist
Will Schwalbe: Hi. I’m Will Schwalbe and you’re listening to But That’s Another Story. My favorite question in the world is “What are you reading?” My second favorite question is: “Are you going to finish that?” I ask that of my dinner companions if they pause for even a heartbeat . . . but that’s another story. Whenever I ask people what they’re reading, I’m astounded at the variety of answers. But increasingly I’m finding that people want to talk about poetry—usually a book of poems, but often just one poem, a poem that has been speaking to them deeply over the last days, weeks, or months. Maybe it’s because, now more than ever, to borrow the words of poet Elizabeth Alexander, “we crave truth tellers. We crave real truth.” We live in fractured and fractious times. Cultures have always depended on poets to tell us the truth about our lives as well as the consequences or our actions and inaction. And recently I got to talking about poetry, activism and truth telling . . . with today’s guest.
