Martín
Espada
This
volume combines the poems from Espada's critically acclaimed collection
of poetry Trumpets from the Islands of
Their Eviction with a selection of poems from his first
book, The Immigrant Iceboy's Bolero,
which is now out of print. Espada's work is characterized by its
intensity, its sincerity, and its insight into the lives of diverse
characters. Influenced by his Puerto Rican background, Espada gives
a distinctive voice to his community.
"Martín
Espada defines political poetry for the turn of the century." -
