How Does It Feel to Share It With People You Don't Know?

Pamela Gershwin's new book, "The Corse Boat," is about cycles of trama. The poems are written in a kind of private language that she uses to express herself. She asks her mother not to tell anyone the contents of this book when they read it out loud. Her experience at Harvard and Amers College has left her with an internalized sense of code-switching.
