Anne Carson
with Brighde MullinsWednesday March 21 2001
Anne Carson is a poet, essayist, and scholar of classics who lives in Montreal. Her books include Men in the Off Hours; Autobiography of Red; Plainwater; Glass, Irony, and God; and Eros the Bittersweet.
Ms. Carson, who received a Lannan Literary Award and a MacArthur Fellowship, has said, "I will do anything to avoid boredom…It is the task of a lifetime. You can never know enough, never work enough, never use the infinitives and participles oddly enough, never impede the movement harshly enough, never leave the mind quickly enough."
Ms. Carson teaches at McGill University.
Brighde Mullins teaches creative writing at San Francisco State University and coordinates a poetry series at the Dia Center for the Arts in New York City.
