Avvaiyar Podcast

January 28, 2019

A few years back, at the request of Liz Borstein, I recorded a podcast on Avvaiyar.

Book cover of "Give, Eat, and Live: Poems of Avvaiyar," translated by Thomas Hitoshi Pruiksma

Here's the video clip I mentioned in the podcast. It comes from my show, By Heart: A Celebration of Words, Magic, and Memory.

To go straight to the Avvaiyar poem itself, forward to 3:46.
