Listening to Resistance

In her book she discusses poetry and literature which carry messages of protest. It is a powerful book and makes one think about the voices contained within each piece. Voices from those in the margins and people who wish to be heard, but for one reason or another their work is not being marketed or discussed in the mainstream market. It will leave you with a strong message. It is a must have.
