![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() My first question is about your poem “Accidental Pastoral,” one of my very favorites in the book. Hi Maggie! Thanks for being open to being interviewed. I’d like to dive right in by asking you some questions about your much-anticipated new book (couldn’t wait to read it!), Good Bones (Tupelo Press, 2017). We went back and forth with one question at a time for the next couple of weeks, mostly focusing on half a dozen of poems from her newly released poetry collection, Good Bones (Tupelo Press, 2017). I contacted Maggie in late November 2017 with my first question. Smith is the recipient of fellowships from the National Endowment for the Arts, the Ohio Arts Council, and the Sustainable Arts Foundation. In 2016, her poem “Good Bones” went viral internationally and was called the “Official Poem of 2016” by Public Radio International. Her poems have appeared or are forthcoming in the New York Times, Ploughshares, Tin House, the Adroit Journal, the Believer, AGNI, the Best American Poetry, and elsewhere. Maggie Smith is the author of, most recently, Good Bones (Tupelo Press, 2017) and The Well Speaks of Its Own Poison (2015). ![]()
