Poetry Prizes for Fanny Howe and Ange Mlinko
Happy news: the Poetry Foundation has awarded big-money prizes to Fanny Howe and Ange Mlinko. Howe won the $100k Ruth Lilly Poetry Prize and Mlinko won the $10k Randall Jarrell Award for Criticism.
Both are terrific writers, but since I’ve done enough raving about Ange to last quite a while, I think I’ll just echo something David Shapiro said on Facebook: it’s good to see the good guys win.
