Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

The Invisible Borders of Time: Five Female Latin American Poets is a new anthology edited by Venezuelan-born editor and poet Nidia Hernández. In this collection, Hernández, winner of the Sundara Ramaswamy prize for The Land of Mild Light: Selected Poems of Rafael Cadenas, gathers the voices of Cristina Peri Rossi (Uruguay), Piedad Bonnett (Colombia), Yolanda Pantin (Venezuela), Carmen Boullosa (Mexico), and Rossella Di Paolo (Peru)-five award-winning Latin American poets-into a definitive bilingual anthology. This collection, representative of the region's rich poetic history, samples the poetry of trailblazing female voices from the last sixty years. "If I write a poem it's like I'm in the middle of my words, my fears and dreams-in the middle of a reality that belongs to us all but that is also mine alone," says Rossella Di Paolo. This quote embodies The Invisible Borders of Time, in which five female poets share words, fears, and dreams with each other and with us all, yet each remains undeniably singular.Many celebrated poets and translators have brought this edition into English, including Sophie Cabot Black, Forrest Gander, Sally Keith, and Rowena Hill, among others.
