Critic and essayist Phillip Lopate joins Zibby to discuss his latest anthology, The Contemporary American Essay, and how it fits into his trilogy of American essay collections. Also discussed is Phillip's large body of work (including The Art of the Personal Essay, which has been a part of every personal library Zibby has had), why anthologies require a certain headspace to assemble, and just how powerful an essay can be.
