Published on Tuesday – We unequivocably sing its praises – from Wave Books, There You Go – Interviews, Journals and Ephemera by the late-lamented Joanne Kyger
From the publisher’s site:
“The inaugural book of Wave’s new interview series, There You Are combines 40 years of interviews, letters, poems, and journals to present a narrative of the remarkable poet Joanne Kyger, who intersected with the most influential movements of late twentieth-century poetry yet remained rooted in her daily practice with a forthright attention to our present moment.”
We recently featured footage of Joanne reading (from 1976 in Novato) – here and here
Here’s Joanne, eight years earlier, in a one-off collaboration with experimental filmmaker Robert Zagone (and Walt Bjerke and Loren Sears), from the film Descartes (1968)

We’re thrilled to be able to announce this book – one of the all-time treasures, dear Joanne!
