About this listen

Welcome to The Human Core Podcast!

What does it mean to be human? This is the central question posed by a new collection of poetry, The Human Core, by writer, painter, and maker Philip Charles Williams.

The Human Core is divided into three sections: The City, The Country, and The Frontier, and within each section, the poems are focused on different personas, locations, and times.

This podcast is a complement to the blog The Human Core and is read by the author.
