NPR's Book of the Day - Anne Enright’s ‘The Wren, The Wren’ is a family story about poetry and betrayal

Phil McDaragh is a great Irish poet; he was also a lousy husband and father, abandoning his family to pursue his writing.

Enright spoke with NPR's Scott Simon about writing fiction about a great writer, and how the poet's bad behavior in his personal life impacts the McDaragh women's own passions, years down the road.
