  Maxine Kumin's "Jack and Other New Poems" and "In Deep: Country Essays"By Laura Knoy on Friday, September 23, 2005.Although a Philadelphia native, Maxine Kumin has spent most of her life in New England and since 1976, on a horse farm in Warner, New Hampshire. Many of Kumin's essays and poems reflect on New Hampshire's ever-changing landscape... rugged mountains and seashores, lakes and farmlands… the vibrancy of autumn colors and the nuances of mud season. She also writes about our relation to our land… tapping maple syrup, foraging for mushrooms and the animals who share our land with us, from black flies to black bears. Today in our final installment of our series Granite State Stories we explore our relationship to our land though the words of Maxine Kumin, and through the pages of her newest book of poetry and an older book of essays. Laura's guests are Maxine Kumin and TBA. listen:
