In this poignant bilingual collection, preeminent New Mexican poet
E. A. "Tony" Mares posthumously shares his passionate journey into
the broken heart and glimmering shadows of the Spanish Civil War,
whose shock waves still resonate with the political upheavals of
our own times. Mares engages in dialogue with heroes and demons,
anarchists and cardinals, and beggars and poets. He takes us
through the convex mirror of history to the blood-stained streets
of Madrid, Guernica, and Barcelona. He interrogates the assassins
of Federico Garcia Lorca for their crimes against poetry and
humanity. Throughout the collection the narrator is participant and
commentator, and his language is both lyrical and direct. In
addition to Mares's parallel Spanish and English poems, the book
includes a prologue by Enrique Lamadrid, an introduction by
Fernando Martin Pescador, and an epilogue by Susana Rivera.
Lovingly shepherded and completed by friends and family, this book
will appeal to Mares enthusiasts and readers interested in poetry
and history, who will be glad to have this unexpected gift from a
master's voice.
