Aloud: Voices from the Nuyorican Poets Café
by Miguel Algarin Edited by Bob Holman This is a collection of honest, raw, and exciting pieces by many poets of all different backgrounds. This book inspired me to write from different perspectives and in different voices, as well as introduced me to the world of spoken word. |
Billions & Billions: Thoughts on Life & Death at the Brink of the Millennium
by Carl Sagan Since high school, this book has continued to inspire me and make me reflect on the beauty, mystery, vastness of the world and universe. This book explores the human mind, the universe, science, emotion, wonder, and so much more. Every time I open it I can’t put it down. |
