CANDID EROTICISM, February 3, 2000
This review is from: Diva (Paperback)
In "Diva," Rafael Campo brings to life the issues that color the world today with bold and touching lines of poetry and prose. Campo's palpable language not only invites but envelopes the reader into his world of pain and anguish, loves and passions-- and the everyday happenstances of life in America and abroad. A doctor by profession, Campo stitches the raw realities of the medical world with the ever-impending emotional tugging that comes along with the social stigmas associated with incurable illnesses such as AIDS. Campo delicately treads on the balance between experience and observation, leading the reader to a heightened awareness of the world around her/him and an empathetic eye to those who share it.
