Caitlin Doyle (poetry ’08) has been interviewed by the National YoungArts Foundation! Among other things, the interview touches on Caitlin’s experience as the featured poetry alumna in this year’s Annual Faculty Reading and her experience in the BU MFA Program. Of the program, Caitlin says, “You work so hard in such a short period that your evolution as a writer takes on the same quality as a time-lapse video of a flower blossoming.” She also talks about lessons garnered from Robert Pinsky, Rosanna Warren, and Derek Walcott, and says “studying in the BU program shaped me as a reader and writer in ways that continue to reverberate through my work.” Click below to read Caitlin’s terrific interview:
