Gay Awareness Week was beginning at the University of Wyoming, and the keynote speaker was Leslea Newman, discussing her book Heather Has Two Mommies. Shaken, the author addressed the large audience that gathered and remained haunted by Matthew's murder. October Mourning, a novel in verse, is her deeply felt response to the events of that tragic day. Using her poetic imagination, the author creates fictitious monologues from various points of view, including the fence Matthew was tied to, the stars that watched over him, the deer that kept him company, and Matthew himself. More than a decade later, this stunning cycle of sixty-eight poems serves as an illumination for readers too young to remember, and as a powerful, enduring tribute to Matthew Shepard's life. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references. 600 10 $a Shepard, Matthew, $d -1998 $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Hate crimes $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Gays $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Laramie (Wyo.) $v Fiction. 600 11 $a Shepard, Matthew, $d d. 1998 $v Fiction. 650 1 $a Murder $v Fiction. 650 1 $a Gays $v Fiction. 650 1 $a Hate crimes $v Fiction. 651 1 $a Laramie (Wyo.) $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Audiobooks. $2 lcgft 700 1 $a Podehl, Nick. 700 1 $a Parks, Tom, $d 1965- 700 1 $a Daniels, Luke. 700 1 $a Rudd, Kate, $d 1980- 700 1 $a Traister, Christina. 700 1 $a Beresford, Emily. 830 0 $a Candlewick on BrillianceAudio. 941 $a 1 945 $a cdab 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20181006071940.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=87C78002CCDC11E29536ECE2DAD10320 994 $a C0 $b UIBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
