Gray Jacobik will read from her book, Eleanor, poems written in Eleanor Roosevelt’s voice. Please register in advance: https://bit.ly/gray-jacobik
Learn more about Gray Jacobik on her website: http://www.grayjacobik.com

In Eleanor, Jacobik presents fifty eight poems in Roosevelt’s voice told against the backdrop of many of the major national and international events of the twentieth century. Included are poems about Franklin, her children, her mother-in-law, and her most passionate and intimate friendships; others focus on ER’s evolving relationship to servants and issues of class and human rights, as well her service to the world community. Jacobik’s monologues constitute a sustained imaginative work that embodies ER’s emotional experience, moral conflicts, fears, losses, desires, and aspirations.
