Jane Hirshfield - Possibility, Poetry, and a Life of Attention
Manage episode 425509846 series 2974825
It would feel wrong to place labels on Jane Hirshfield. Language would fail to reach there, ironic for someone who has devoted their life to the practice of poetry and the practice of Zen Buddhism. Jane is a modern master, change-maker, and wise and winsome voice.
