Caught up in the charged atmosphere of New York City that followed the disaster of September 11, 2001, novelist Rick Moody took the stage at Joe's Pub at the Public Theater and spoke with great warmth about the work of poet Susan Wheeler, whose simple eloquence was just right for that moment - and many others since. Produced by the Poetry Society of America for its Writers-on-Poets series. Wheeler's work frequently appears in the Best American Poetry anthologies and in The Paris Review, The New Yorker and other publications. Her books include Bag o' Diamonds, Smokes, and Source Codes. Moody's books include The Ice Storm, Purple America, and The Black Veil: A Memoir with Digressions.
