Synopsis: | The African American writer Maya Angelou discovered and was inspired by the work of the Scottish poet Robert Burns at the age of eight. "He was the first white man I read who seemed to understand that a human being was a human being and that we are more alike than unalike." To commemorate the bicentenary of Burns's death, she makes a pilgrimage to Scotland. | |
