After winning the 2023 Pulitzer Prize in poetry and retiring after three decades teaching at Washington University, Carl Phillips has published a new collection of poems. Like much of his work, they linger on themes like the unreliability of memory and the ever-present specter of loss.

Recent John Burroughs graduate and Lake St. Louis resident Shangri-La Hou discusses themes of nature, spirituality, identity and place in her work, and poetry as a tool for self-expression and raising ecological awareness.

Shangri-La Hou, a senior at John Burroughs School in Ladue, is one of five National Student Poets who will promote poetry around the country.

Carl Phillips read the title poem of his award-winning collection, 鈥淭hen the War: And Selected Poems, 2007-2020,鈥� during a March 2022 appearance on St. Louis on the Air.
