Naming the Leper by Christopher Lee Manes

As a work of documentary poetry, Naming the Leper demonstrates that a term like leper, whether a stigma attached to patients suffering from illness or a word inscribed on the caskets of the deceased, cannot define the lives of individuals or encompass the full extent of their legacies.
Christopher Lee Manes is a poet, scholar, and educator whose work has appeared in Louisiana History, the Southwestern Review, and Carville: Remembering Leprosy in America. He lives in Dallas, Texas.
