Review of An Unlikely Partnership

What an interesting story! I'm not into poetry at all, but several of the poems read were amazing, and it blows me away that a heavily-accented Swedish composer can get together with an poetry-writing American inmate and make these things happen. Listen for the poem "Beauty in Cell Bars", it's worth it all by itself. I love the narrator's measured but natural voice. And Spoon Jackson reads as well as he writes. Good audio.
