PBS Books is pleased to celebrate Women’s History Month by hosting a conversation with writer and activist Sandra Cisneros, who is the author of “Woman Without Shame.” Join us to learn about Cisneros and her phenomenal new collections of poems, hear the poet read two of her poems (English and Spanish), and more.
