Poet Karen McCarthy Woolf is the author of  An Aviary of Small Birds  and Seasonal Disturbances.

In a meaningful interview Karen reflects on the death of her baby son Otto. We discuss transcendence, devotion and her lifelong love of music and dancing. She reads her poem ‘Argument’ and we talk about making an impact and the permission to rage.
