PennSound adds KWLS Audio Recordings

We are proud to announce a new collaboration with PennSound, the digital poetry archive project at the University of Pennsylvania. PennSound, founded by Charles Bernstein and Al Filreis as part of UPenn's center for contemporary writing, maintains perhaps the finest online collection of audio recordings by 20th century poets.
