Plans de Cours par Liane Hicks
Le Poète X est un roman de fiction réaliste écrit en vers. Il s'agit de Xiomara Batista, 15 ans, une poétesse douée qui vit avec sa famille à Harlem, NY. Le roman est du point de vue de Xiomara et se lit comme son journal personnel de poésie décrivant sa vie, ses opinions sur la religion, devant faire face à un sexisme constant, ses parents dominicains stricts, son nouveau petit ami interdit et naviguant dans le monde en tant que jeune femme de couleur essayant de trouver sa voix.

- XIOMARA
- "Late into the night I write and the pages of my notebook swell from all the words I’ve pressed onto them. It almost feels like the more I bruise the page the quicker something inside me heals.”
- XIOMARA'S BABY BRACELET
- XIOMARA
- "Mi Hija"
- Mami is a very devout Catholic that wanted to be a nun and wishes Xiomara had the same devotion. She says that Xiomara should have learned her faith like she did. However, Xiomara can see from her mother's scars that corporal punishment was how her mother was taught faith, something that Xiomara doesn't believe is right.
- Xiomara's notebook of poems is sacred to her. It is where she pours out all of her emotions, thoughts, and opinions that contradict much of what her parents believe. It symbolizes her hopes and dreams of becoming a poet and finding the courage to use her voice in a world that continually tries to silence her.
- Xiomara’s baby bracelet has her name on one side and "Mi Hija" (My Daughter) on the other. When Xiomara was caught kissing Aman, her punishment was abusive and harsh. However, on Xiomara's birthday, Mamí had the bracelet re-sized. It symbolizes their complicated relationship as well as Xiomara’s identity as her mother's daughter and as an individual with thoughts and feelings of her own.
- "I lay it across my wrist and cinch the clasps closed.Her daughter on one side,myself on the other."
