Book Description
"Selection of moving poems by Cuban poet reflects her struggle to subvert official language, her disenchantment with Cuba's revolutionary government, and her incarceration. Unidentified translator has served poorly not only Cruz Varela's poetry but also Nicasio Silva's critical essay and Liva Clavijo's prologue. For more satisfying translations, see Ruth Behar's translation of 'El Muro' ('The Wall') in Bridges to Cuba (see item #bi2001000699#) and Mairym Cruz-Bernal's work in Ballad of the blood (see item #bi 97009390#)"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
