Maria Popova is the creator of The Marginalian, where for two decades she has traced the connections between science and poetry, astronomy and love, nature and consciousness, all while building a body of work animated by wonder and rigor. She joins to discuss her new book Traversal, the search for meaning in an indifferent universe, and what poetry, astronomy, love, and wonder can teach us about being alive.
