Show Notes

Sally Read is an acclaimed poet whose work has been translated into five languages. She recounts her 2010 conversion to Catholicism in Night’s Bright Darkness, published in 2016, with further reflections on coming of age as a person of faith in her 2019 book Annunciation: A Call to Faith in a Broken World. We speak with her today about her recent collection of poems, Dawn of This Hunger, which poetically revisits episodes from the life of Jesus.
