Flatbush

Spend an evening with former NY State Poet Patricia Spears Jones in an intimate parlor setting. Her Jackson Poetry Prize-winning work tackles everything from Aretha Franklin's hat to the devil's wife, delivered with the warmth of a friend who happens to be one of America's most celebrated voices.
