Touching the Fire Fifteen Poets of Today's Latino Renaissance
- List Price: $17.00
- Binding: Paperback
- Publisher: Bantam Dell Pub Group
- Publish date: 02/01/1998
Touching the Fire recognizes the excitement of this movement by focusing on only a few of its best practitioners and by presenting a substantial portion of each poet's work. Rather than introducing as many voices as possible, this collection sets itself apart by introducing us to only the most seminal voices -- but as deeply as possible.
Some of these poets -- Martin Espada, Lorna Dee Cervantes, and Victor Hernandez Cruz, for example -- have been writing and publishing a long time. Some are only starting their careers. But they were all chosen because they best represent the strongest elements of modem Latino poetry-a confidence of language in its many forms, a gift for shattering emotional honesty, and an ear for the rhythms of a vibrant culture.
