Night Sky with Exit Wounds
by Ocean Vuong

Welcome to The Rusty Toque's new poetry podcast On the Line, where host Kate Sutherland invites three guests to join her in a lively discussion about a book of contemporary poetry.

In Episode 1, Kate Sutherland discusses Night Sky With Exit Wounds by Ocean Vuong with Toronto poets Joan Guenther, Soraya Peerbaye, and Brandy Ryan.

The conversation sometimes strays beyond the book to reference interviews with Vuong in Best American Poetry, divedapper, The New Yorker, NPR, Peril, Split This Rock, and The Well & Often Reader.

Description from Copper Canyon Press:
Ocean Vuong's first full-length collection aims straight for the perennial "big"—and very human—subjects of romance, family, memory, grief, war, and melancholia. None of these he allows to overwhelm his spirit or his poems, which demonstrate, through breath and cadence and unrepentant enthrallment, that a gentle palm on a chest can calm the fiercest hungers.

“Reading Vuong is like watching a fish move: he manages the varied currents of English with muscled intuition. His poems are by turns graceful and wonderstruck. His lines are both long and short, his pose narrative and lyric, his diction formal and insouciant. From the outside, Vuong has fashioned a poetry of inclusion.”  The New Yorker
