Description: In her fourth book of poems, the poet lyrically evokes another America. She writes with the critical and contemplative eye of a poet, revealing mystery and beauty in places dark and light, near and far. The allusive language of this collection is a terrain at times steep, fevered, and sensual.
Synopsis: In her fourth book of poems, Mexican-born, Olivia Maciel lyrically evokes another America. She writes with the critical and contemplative eye of a poet, revealing mystery and beauty in places dark and light, near and far. The richly allusive language of" Sombra en plata / Shadow in Silver" is a terrain at times steep, fevered, and sensual: a harmony of words scented of earth and sky. Her poems are catalysts for transformation, challenging the reader with a vision of a world where myth and the quotidian are intimately intertwined. Exploring complex and unpredictable landscapes, Maciel is both a guide and fellow traveler on a fascinating journey through memories and emotions. She eloquently draws from both collective and personal histories, and this new bilingual compilation will be a pleasure to turn to again and again.
