An illuminating collection of short stories

A LETTER TO HARVEY MILK by Lesléa Newman Recommended by Joanne Vannicola, actor

“This book of short stories reminds me how far we’ve come. The titular story is about a Holocaust survivor who takes a writing class led by a young lesbian teacher, and the things they teach each other. Though we are in difficult times, as humans we have weathered many a storm—and have more in common than not.”
