Great news

What great news! My Dominican friend Ángela Hernández Núñez has won the National Literature Prize of the Dominican Republic. Ángela was one of the three poets whose work I translated in "Praises & Offenses: Three Women Poets from the Dominican Republic" (Boa Editions). ¡Felicidades, Ángela!

Diaspora

My next book, Aleph, broken: Poems from My Diaspora is forthcoming from Broadstone Books in the next few months. I'd like to start a conversation about Diaspora with other readers. What does diaspora mean to you personally?
