Channeling Mark Twain

Channeling Mark Twain by Carol Muske-Dukes

Set in the seventies, this powerful story follows Holly, an idealistic, young woman newly arrived in New York City from Minnesota, as she teaches poetry to a group of remarkable and unforgettable studentsprisoners at the Women’s House of Detention on Rikers Island. Carol Muske-Dukes is the Poet Laureate of California. Her writing is vibrant and elegant, the narrative magical and transformative.
