Publisher's Synopsis
Nine Coins / Nueve Monedas is a palimpsest of love, fears, dreams and the intimate landscapes where the author seeks refuge. These poems appear like small islands of salvation, covered with the brief splendour of the coins people sometimes grab hold of, taking the form of a very personal and often devastating map. Akashic publishes this edition in conjunction with The Paz Prize for Poetry, presented by the National Poetry Series and The Center @ Miami Dade College.
