The United States Library of Congress has chosen a new poet laureate, and for the second time in a row, it's chosen a writer from New Hampshire. Strafford resident Charles Simic takes the reins from Donald Hall, who was appointed last year. Tonight on the Front Porch, we'll talk with Dr. Simic about his life, his writing, and his newest honor.
