Bøker av Joyce Sutphen

"Ricardo Pau-Llosa was born in Havana, Cuba, in 1954. In 1960 his family fled the communist takeover and arrived in Chicago. In 1968, by way of Tampa, they moved to Miami. His first collection of poems, Sorting Metaphors, was selected by William Stafford for the Anhinga Prize in 1983. This was followed by Bread of the Imagined from Bilingual Press in 1992, and Cuba, the 100th title in the Carnegie Mellon University Press Poetry Series, in 1993-the first of seven of Pau-Llosa's collections from Carnegie Mellon. Additionally, he is a noted international authority on Latin American art"--

Joyce Sutphen's evocations of life on a small farm, coming of age in the late 1960s, and travelling and searching for balance in a very modern world are both deeply personal and familiar. Readers from Maine to Minnesota will recognise themselves, their parents, aunts and uncles, and neighbours in these poems.
