MartÃn Espada's Floaters is a remarkable collection of prose poems, simultaneously dark and hopeful. Some of the floaters are bodies, friends he's lost. He unspools memory after memory, giving readers a sense of the person who was and the loss that remains. Again and again as I read, I found myself reading lines aloud to those around me, Espada's gift for choose the unexpected, but apt, description and his ability to create juxtapositions that illuminates corners we didn't know existed are stunning.

In this collection, Martín Espada bears witness to confrontation with anti-immigrant bigotry as a tenant lawyer years ago, and now sings the praises of Central American adolescents playing soccer in an internment camp founded on that same bigotry. He knows that times of hate also call for poems of love--even in the voice of a Galápagos tortoise. Whether celebrating the visions of fallen dreamers and poets or condemning the devastation of Hurricane Maria and official negligence in his father's Puerto Rico, Espada invokes ferocious, incandescent spirits"-- Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |
