With work rooted in word-witchery and the working class, April’s guest Louise Fazackerley explores the synergy between poetry and movement in a way that makes the ugly beautiful and the mundane fantastical. Her published collections include The Lolitas and The Uniform Factory (Verve Poetry Press), Bird St. (The Secret Writers Club), and The Pleasure Dome (Burning Eye).
