Award-winning author, scholar, and professor Jeffrey MacLachlan explores his writerly world with Washington Square Review editor Melissa Ford Lucken. MacLachlan reads an excerpt of his poem inspired by Soviet advertisements, describes the series of politically charged posters that motivated him to create the poem, and laughs about bad art, bad books, and good times to drink alcohol.

Jeffrey MacLachlan’s poem, It’s Nice to Drink Coffee with Liquor, appears in the Summer 2024 issue of the Washington Square Review.
