City of a Hundred Fires

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Blanco, Richard, PUBLISHER: University of Pittsburgh Press, City of a Hundred Fires presents us with a journey through the cultural coming of age experiences of the hyphenated Cuban-American. This distract group, known as the Generation (as coined by Bill Teck), are the bilingual children of Cuban exiles nourished by two cultural currents -- the fragmented traditions and transferred nostalgia of their parents' Caribbean homeland and the very real and present America where they grew up and live. There is a Caribbean lushness and rhythm in these poems with characters like "Sarita in her porous eggshell skin....the soft balls of her feet and strawberry toenails seeping from under the edges of sheets swirled around her contours like icing". But there is also a sense of wistfulness and proud self-invention addressed formally through languages and style, with individual poems effortlessly combining Spanish and English into an understandable text. The journey ends in this self-invention, a mosaic assembled from fragments of culture, history, and language, fractured but whole.

Late Winter

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Brown, Bill, PUBLISHER: Iris Press, The idea of home, the magic of story, and the healing power of nature inform the poems in Late Winter. Yet, Bill Brown understands that loss and grief, breaking and mending deepen the human experience. "Taking joy, isn't easy," Brown writes, "as if you could ignore lost faces in city streets, or playgrounds littered with broken glass." These poems often mine the darkness of loss, war and our culture's constant barrage of status and style. Even so, in "Dream Letter Lullaby" Brown asks us to "be as hopeful as the hands of children sleeping." His world gives us the right to reclaim our innocence. He knows what every child knows- "A closed heart can't greet a winter sky. Even a rain puddle is filled with it, and a horse trough, and the slow current of creeks." Late Winter opens with a search for home. By the book's end, Brown believes that, with the power of memory and love, home can be born like a covenant in each of us, and that "Some ancient hope, like winter light, is allied with the gravity of stars."
