Two great writers celebrated.

The celebration of one literary laureate kicked off when the Swedish Academy in Stockholm awarded the 2009 Nobel Prize for Literature to German-Romanian Herta Mϋller October 8, 2009. The celebration of another literary laureate got underway October 7, when Amiri Baraka, one of African America’s greatest statesmen of letters, turned 75, and plans were announced to honor the venerable author October 10 at the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture in New York City.
