Her moving words reflect her daily search for meaning,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Child of Exile: A Poetry Memoir (Paperback)
The Child Of Exile is a compilation of free-verse poetry written by a Cuban-American, who left Cuba as a child with her parents to seek refuge in the United States. Her moving words reflect her daily search for meaning, identity, and belonging. The result is a unique work that embodies the heart of establishing one's existence in a new land while striving to connect with one's roots far away. "For A Sister Here": Six years ago I discovered her / in the ruins of the city, / wandering among the ashes / of burnt souls. / Then, I denied my sister, / a stranger. / I listened, / heard the silence of fear, / the sounds of aimlessness. / I could only wait, / waith for her to break the night.
