Poeta en San Francisco

Sinopsis del Libro

Poetry. Asian American Studies. POETA EN SAN FRANCISCO is the winner of the highly prestigious James Laughlin Award for 2005, awarded annually from the Academy of American Poetry and the only prize for a second book of poetry in the United States. Although Reyes' first book was not as widely known as the first book of many of the other eligible poets, the judges nevertheless courageously chose this risky, radical, and deserving second book put out by an energetic but very small publisher. Reyes received her undergraduate education at UC Berkeley, where she also served as Editor-in-Chief of the Filipino American literary publication Maganda. Her work has been nominated for a Pushcart Prize. Her first book, Gravities of Center, was published by Arkipelago Books (SF) in 2003.

With assistance from Jonathan Shay M.D., Ph.D., the author of Achilles in Vietnam (a book about combat...

Renovatio

"RENOVATIO" is the 3rd collection of Bonafide Rojas & the 2nd publication from Grand Concourse Press. This collection of poems deal with the beauty of reinvention in life & in art, coming of age, dealing with death, fatherhood, the impermanence of our mortality, the realization of interconnectivity & the quiet beauty of solitude. "It's difficult to explain what Rojas has done in RENOVATIO. Like pulling a rabbit from a hat, it seems impossible to yank words from the stronghold of self like he has. But unlike pulling a rabbit from a hat, this is not an illusion. This is not a trick. Rojas...

Geografía accidental

Estos treinta poemas, que podrían ser otros en lugares totalmente diferentes, nos hablan de su viaje interior y de su inabarcable mapa personal. Tierra adentro Hay un mapa escondido tierra adentro, un itinerario inusual que señala atajos y posadas; y las alas blancas que sortean el tiempo, me arrastran sin remedio desde la costa transitada hacia territorios sin dueño, paisajes que serán tan míos como estos que ahora colman mi cabeza de nombres, líneas, latitudes y rostros; universos únicos que se empeñarán en habitarme mucho después de haberme ido...
