Kwame Dawes Reads for State of Wonder
b"The Jamaican poet Kwame Dawes is a consistent favorite at Pacific University's Low-Residency MFA program. While he may be best known for his critical writing on the works of Bob Marley, he's written evocatively on a range of subjects, from HIV/AIDS in Haiti to the American South to the playwright August Wilson. He kindly read for us this poem, reflecting on one of Wilson's characters."
