A mixed-race child of the ’80s, Martin Wiley grew up confronting and embracing a world as mixed and confused as he was, surrounded by beautiful words one minute and screamed at with hate the next. A long- time activist, spoken-word artist, and slam poet, he earned his MFA from Rutgers University-Camden, where he was a Rutgers University Fellow.

"Epic" is a hard genre to get precise agreement about. The one that stood out to me as not belonging was "Hamlet." I voted for some that were marginal in terms of structure-- Lord of the Rings is mostly prose, Sir Gawain is quite short, Dante's Divine Comedy doesn't have the typical epic plot, etc. Thanks for starting this list.
