Moving between the speech and silence of a woman struggling to
speak freely, Ruth Behar embarks on a poetic voyage into her own
vulnerability and the sacrifices of her exiled ancestors as she
tries to understand love, loss, regret, and the things we keep and
carry with us. Behar's vivid renderings of wilted gardens, crashing
waves, and firefly-lit nights recall the imagery of her
inspiration, Dulce Maria Loynaz, who is often known as the Cuban
Emily Dickinson. Presented in a beautiful bilingual English-Spanish
edition--Behar serves as her own translator--Everything I Kept/Todo
lo que guarde will haunt readers with the cries and whispers which
illuminate the human spirit and the spectrum of emotions that make
for a life and lives well-remembered.
