MFA Alum in Esquire
Poet Alex Lemon (MFA 2004) is featured in the January issue of Esquire magazine. He is one of seven men whose job it is, write the editors, to "make sense of the world and make us laugh, think, and question our way to a little bit of wisdom . . . and a sharp sense of winter style." Lemon's "from Halleluja Blackout" (title poem of his latest Milkweed collection) was chosen by Charles Wright for the Best American Poetry 2008 anthology. A memoir from Scribner is forthcoming.
