Public radio often likes to offer profiles of interesting people. Charles Bernstein's "In Particular" is no different, except that the profiles are each one sentence long and, together, provide a surprisingly complete cross-section of humanity. Never before aired.

Review of "In Particular" by Charles Bernstein
A vibrant poem with the odor of an unknown place. How wonderfully curious! Perfect for exploring social identities of a modern city, beyond the simply obvious challenges of multiculturalism. I would like to hear more of this type of piece on weekday NPR.
