READ TO ME talks to... Mauricio Novoa

<p>On READ TO ME, we practice the most fundamental skill for excellent writing — how to listen for what works on the page. (And then understand why.)</p> <div class= "product-hero-desc product-hero-desc--spacer-bottom-large"> <strong>Today, we get to listen to the talented, generous, and so so so so smart poet MAURICIO NOVOA.</strong> His debut collection MEMORIAS FROM THE BELTWAY explores "themes of working-class survivalism and ingenuity, spiritual tenacity, hip hop articulations, and el exilio," per his co-publishers, FlowerSong Press and Red Salmon Press. In conversation, Mauricio is humble about himself but brilliant about the work. </div> <div class= "product-hero-desc product-hero-desc--spacer-bottom-large">  </div> <div class= "product-hero-desc product-hero-desc--spacer-bottom-large"> <p>READ TO ME podcast is supported by READ TO ME Literary Arts.
