From: Lisa New Sent: 11/25/2018 11:45:45 PM To: Jeffrey Epstein [jeevacation@gmail.com] Subject: Re: invitation Importance: High can you give me a little bit of phrasing you think is optimal? I'm not sure I know how to ask her to join this company without asking her to be part of poetry in america. It does also seem to me perhaps relevant that Serena thinks of herself as a poetry person. For people who think that way, maybe not nothing (hasn't been nothing to others) that a Harvard poetry professor seeks her wisdom on the art form? Would really appreciate your edit.

It's for adults and it raises awareness on the issues of discrimination against women athletes in sports ,and, against women of color in childbirth. These are Serena's big issues now.

I'm going upstairs to hunt for my copy of Lolita, or will get on my kindle and reread on our way to Australia. I may have lent it to one of my kids. I would recommend reading My Antonia by Cather next time you're on a long plane trip. The prose is gorgeous, and the book has-- come to think of it-- similar themes to Lolita in that it's about a man whose whole life is stamped forever by his impression of a young girl. Thank you for this help with Serena. I'm so sorry about what happened with WA. I will keep the "bootleg" episode and hope to release someday. It's so good, and he was so kind to read the poem with me and you were so kind to make it happen. Lisa Elisa New Powell M.
