CITY OF BONES- a testament
"Why read Kwame Dawes? Because he knows how to ‘listen for the calm voice of God.’ Because he will show you how to grieve and not be torn open.... Because Dawes is the poet to read when ‘all talking / is over’ and you sit alone in this room.”
--Ilya Kaminsky, author of Dancing in Odessa
WPFV. Washington DC. January 10, 2017
