Description

BOA Editions offers a book of poems titled: DIADEM by Marosa Di Giorgio. Marosa di Giorgio has one of the most distinct and recognizable voices in Latin American poetry. Her surreal and fable-like prose poems invite comparison to Kafka, Cortzar, and even contemporary American poets Russell Edson and Charles Simic; but di Giorgio's voice, imagery, and themes-childhood, the Uruguayan countryside, a perception of the sacred-are her own. Previously written off as ''the mad woman of Uruguayan letters,'' di Giorgio's reputation has blossomed in recent years. Translated with an Introduction by Adam Giannelli. Paperback.
