Beautiful review of Dreaming My Animal Selves by Karen Lively in The California Journal of Women Writers
"Hauntingly evocative in its mysticism,
Dreaming My Animal Selves is part fairytale, part spiritual replenishment. Like the experience of dreaming, Cardona’s poetry feels simultaneously exotic and familiar, covering foreign terrain that will eventually lead us home."

Dreaming the World in Translation: A Conversation with Hélène Cardona in World Literature Today
Dreaming the World in Translation: A Conversation with Hélène Cardona. Interview by Alison Williams in World Literature Today:

"When you understand and know other cultures, you don’t fear the other. There is no other. We should be shepherds of the Earth."
"Translation is necessary to know oneself—to know where one comes from. Every language is a key into the psyche of its people."
"Through translation, we bring cultures together, we create bridges. Becoming familiar with another culture transcends otherness. We are many and diverse."
