Hello Mrs. Blackhall,
ReplyDeleteMy name is Kourtnie Jones and I am currently doing a war poetry project on your poems "Holocaust" and "The Holocaust" in my dual credit literature class. I was wondering if you could give me more details about your visit and what lead you to visit also the thoughts and emotions you felt when writing them?
