Lillian-Yvonne Bertram Featured in New American Poets series

Illinois alumna Lillian-Yvonne Bertram was selected by Aracelis Girmay for the Poetry Society of America's New American Poets feature. Of Lillian's debut collection But a Storm Is Blowing from Paradise, Girmay writes, "The poems move us through and over the terrain of a wild and changing geographic and linguistic landscape." A well deserved recognition--congrats, Lillian!
