    • Abstract:
      The article focuses on poet Elizabeth Alexander and author Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie. Alexander discusses her studies with poet Derek Walcott, and states that one of her goals is to bring more public attention to poetry. Adichie jokes about having received a MacArthur Fellowship in 2008, and says her primary motivation as an author is to be a story teller.
