Bill talks with and invites readings by renowned poet, novelist, and editor Philip Appleman, whose creativity spans a long life filled with verse, fiction, philosophy, and religion. The author of nine books of poetry, three novels, and six volumes of non-fiction, Appleman’s most acclaimed work includes explorations of the life and theories of Charles Darwin. A scholar of Darwin, Appleman edited the critical anthology Darwin, and wrote the poetry books Darwin’s Ark and Darwin’s Bestiary, earning him praise for illuminating the “overwhelming sanity” of Darwin’s thought with clarity and wit. Appleman’s latest poetry collection is Perfidious Proverbs.

Well done!
A delightful outlook of a human being that cherishes his relationship with other human beings, from his wife to the rest, using the power of poetry to dissect the existence that surrounds him and find true meaning in it, as he disspells arrogant ignorance and myths that some life role models use to control the weak and unable, driving them into the darkness of an ignoramus status.
