From the graceful realism of the opening travelogues to its final long poem, An Orange guides memory and affect into cosmopolitan forms: disalienating, expansive, and tonic.This program will stream on the <a href="https://pioneerworks.org/broadcast/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Pioneer Works Broadcast.</a> Ted Dodson is the author of An Orange (Pioneer Works / Wonder, 2021), At the  National Monument / Always Today (Pioneer Works, 2016), and Pop! in Spring  (Diez, 2013).
