Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: In Case of Fire in a Foreign Land: New and Collected Poems from Two Languages (Paperback)
Extremely powerful poetry that cannot but move the audience. Written in Spanish and English. Dorfman pulls no punches, but provides descriptions of his experiences or those of people he knows.

This review is from: In Case of Fire in a Foreign Land: New and Collected Poems from Two Languages (Paperback)
It's rare and wonderful to be able to read an author's own translation of his work into English. This was especially wonderful to read as part of a second-year Spanish class, as I began to learn enough grammar and style to understand the nuances of the original Spanish, and how Dorfman managed to capture them in English. Even for a non-bilingual reader, however, these poems are beautiful and well worth reading.
