To Be Human
by Dan Williams
To Be Human is a collection of narrative poems that ranges in time from the Paleozoic era to the present day. They explore different perspectives and voices from important historical events and figures including Cicero, Emerson, and Margot of Valois. Scholarly but accessible, these poems explore what it means to be human in a world of fluidity and change. This is the third poetry collection written by the award-winning poet Dan Williams.
