Simply Lasting: Jane Kenyon

By Shay Zeller on Tuesday, October 25, 2005.

Poet and writer Jane Kenyon died in 1995 at age 47. During her life she'd amassed a huge following of admiring friends and fellow writers, both in New Hampshire and nationwide. Longtime friend and poet Joyce Peseroff has gathered works from Jane Kenyon's friends and from Kenyon's own personal collection that reveal the tenacity and spirit Jane Kenyon possessed. We'll talk with Joyce about her collection, Simply Lasting: Writers on Jane Kenyon, her friendship with Jane and the process of getting to know Jane Kenyon better through years of research.
