More Answered Questions

Eliana
Eliana asked Roxane Gay:

How can I read BF and feel like you are inside my brain? I thought I was my own person but it turns out I am a hella lot like you. This is a complement.

Jessica
Jessica asked Roxane Gay:

I just bought a copy of 'Bad Feminist'. I thought that overall, the size of both the book and text is perhaps unusually large. Is it intentionally designed this way? (Nowhere to hide...It's making it easier for people to judge me on the bus)

Debra
Debra asked Roxane Gay:

You will be in Minneapolis for AWP in 2015 in thoughts on what you'll be discussing. Also I'd like to invite you to the Givens Foundation of African American Literature collection at the Anderson Library at the University of Minnesota if you have the time. I'm the board vice chair. We have a website Givens Foundation.
