News at Eleven: "My heritage gave me an innate sense

We hope the bookstores in Guyana order and stock this book, so we can celebrate this young poet's compassionate and inclusive vision that touches us all. We share with you one of Christian Campbell's poems, Iguana, so you can see for yourselves.

Iguana
