Ocean Vuong’s new poetry collection, Time Is a Mother, was released this week. In anticipation of the book release, Vuong was recently interviewed by Time Magazine, PBS NewsHour, NPR’s Fresh Air, and The New Yorker. NPR also published an item on Vuong’s new poems in Morning Edition.
Time is a Mother is Vuong’s second poetry collection. His first poetry collection, Night Sky with Exit Wounds, was published in 2016, and a novel, On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous, was published in 2019.
