WORDS ON A WIRE: Kyle Minor

  Daniel talks with Kyle Minor, author of "Praying Drunk," a collection of stories which won the Story Prize Spotlight Award (http://thestoryprize.blogspot.com/2015/01/praying-drunk-by-kyle-minorthis-years.html).  The book places little distinction between fiction and memory, and explores many of Minor's obsessions.   http://kyleminor.com/

In today's Poetic License, writer Joseph Rios reflects on the loss of his friend Michele Serros, the Chicano writer & poet who died January 4, 2015.

Plus, Daniel explains why metaphors are best used to understand reality...and why it's "turtles all the way down."

Aired Feb. 1, 2015.
