"In this attractive anthology, TerÁn discloses a powerful and grand spirit, whether addressing her mother, her eagle, her rivers, or her dead brother; the idiom varies from the freedoms of early modernism to formal sonnets to the 'old woman's toys' of her final tercets, but the feelings are always dense with loved objects and local solicitude."--Richard Howard "Above all, the poetry of Ana Enriqueta TerÁn transmits movement and contrasting sound patterns. In his dynamic and often inspired translations, Marcel Smith recovers for us the sprung rhythms and eccentric visual shifts in TerÁn's poetry. Smith has taken the risky step of translating and transforming to capture an extraordinarily complex and dense poetry, one with few equivalents even in Spanish."--Gwen Kirkpatrick, University of California, BerkeleyTeran, Ana Enriqueta is the author of 'Poetess Counts to 100 and Bows Out Selected Poems A Bilingual Edition' with ISBN 9780691096728 and ISBN 0691096724.
