Building Poems from Personal History With Jeffrey H. MacLachlan
Description
Pushcart Prize nominee Jeffrey MacLachlan returns to chat with Washington Square Review editor Melissa Ford Lucken. A multi-published writer who teaches at Georgia College & State University and draws inspiration from history and personal events, MacLachlan recounts a multi-generational trip to the ruins of his ancestors in Scotland, considers what advertisements reveal about society, and muses about hot takes on Milton's Paradise Lost.
Jeffrey H. MacLachlan’s poem, Five Stones, appears in the Summer 2026 issue of the Washington Square Review.
