You don’t want to miss Aaron Samuels, an amazing young poet, if he’s coming to a town near you. He’s a powerful new voice in poetry and he’s touring between now and January all over the country. I was so moved and stunned by the power and beauty of his new book Yarmulkes and Fitted Caps. This is the blurb I wrote for his book:
Yarmulkes & Fitted Caps is brilliant and heart-breaking. Samuels fearlessly takes on the complexities of multiracial heritage and identity with charged visions of coming-of-age andfamily histories that will haunt you. This collection establishes Samuels as a poet of extraordinary ambition, talent and vision. –Heidi W. Durrow, New York Times Best-Selling Author of The Girl Who Fell From the Sky
