Exclusive Interview with Raymond Richard, Street Poet from Chicago

Raymond Richard is the author of THE BOOK OF RAYMOND: A JOURNEY FROM PRISON TO PRAISE AND POETRY 

Raymond Richard tells it like it is in poems that are electrifying, terrifying, and awe-inspiring. He has been to the big house, lived in poverty on the streets of Chicago, and took to crime and drugs to survive. Here is poetry that literally crackles off the page. Raymond Richard is the real deal. He has put his life back together against almost insurmountable odds. He s back to tell his story in poems that are honest, heart-breaking, violent and tender. This book is a thoroughly unique look at how religious experience can transform lives for the better.
