An Ode to the Public Library
I wrote and illustrated a poem inspired by a recent "rediscovery" of the library in my thirties. Published online and in the September 25, 2022 print issue of The New York Times, Sunday Arts & Leisure section.
When thinking of the library, childhood memories like R.L. Stine's neon Goosebumps covers used to flood my mind. It was only recently, in search of a quiet space to write, that the public library came back into my life and also surprised me with their wonderful resources, from free English classes to book clubs for seniors.
