Alice Miaolian Baskous is a senior student majoring in French language and culture at Hunter College in the busy city of New York. She is supernally busy around town and has a strong religious drive — which she intends to become evident very shortly upon publication of her upcoming book. One of the main themes employed in Miss Baskous’ self-confabulated poetry and prose is the right for women to be sage, safe, and glorious in modern-day society which oftentimes is evil in its portrayal of women as gross sexual objects, since a woman is a woman is a woman, not to be taken lightly! Apropos of poetry, she believes it will never go out of fashion; and it continues to be one of her paramount attainable joys. To everyone, this body of work: this boon, this gift.
