Recorded Friday September 2, 2022 Returning guest David Horton is back for another yikyak as it’s been over a year since he’s been on and a lot has happened… though much has stayed the same. In this episode we talk about the arts scene in Beijing and how David weathered this year’s lockdown of his compound and surrounding areas. Even more excitingly, we also discuss David’s biggest accomplishment to date: he published a book! Maze Poems is now out on Arteidolia Press and consists of 50-pages of engaging poetry that David wrote over the last four years. The poems are constructed as mazes, much like a search-a-word, and require the reader to literally move the book around to follow along. Get in touch with David at his website (davidharrisonhorton.com) or on Twitter (@unionherald), and get a copy of his book at Arteidolia’s website: www.arteidolia.com/maze-poems-by-david-harrison-horton. Finally, all show notes and mp3s are available at stevensirski.com
