Visiting from State College, Pennsylvania, C. S. Giscombe
reads from his debut work of nonfiction, Into and Out of Dislocation,
a work chronicling his search for a possible 19th-century ancestor, a
Jamaican miner and explorer in northwestern Canada. From Giscombe Road,
he reads the poem "Sound Carries." From Inland, he reads the poems "Far,"
"A Train at Night," and "Nature Boy." He closes with the uncollected poems
"The Old Northwest" and "Cityscape." Steve Dickison introduces Giscombe
and the co-reader, Ishmael Reed.
