Themes of social and political concern, loyalty, friendship and family, African identity, women's experiences, and hope for Cuba's future all found their way into her poems through bold metaphor and tender lyricism. This panoramic anthology, selected from ten volumes of Morejón's work and organized by theme, contains some poems that have already been acclaimed in several languages, others that are less known, and some never before published. Overall they present to Morejón's readership an enhanced, broader, and updated spectrum of her poetry in a Spanish-English edition.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlthough Morejón does not sympathize as much with intellectualized feminism as with \"street\" feminism (the kind that erupts with force as it confronts daily life), her poems illuminate issues in women's existence. Without intending to, she has revitalized contemporary Caribbean feminist literary discourse. One can find in her work the tensions between colonizer and colonized, dominator and dominated, and at the same time enjoy the sheer beauty of images depicting suffering, strength, and hope.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Nancy Morejón\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Wayne State University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/01\/2002\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSeries:\u003c\/b\u003e African American Life (Paperback)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 376\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.15lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 5.90w x 0.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780814330388","brand":"Wayne State University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42794563567753,"sku":"9780814330388","price":28.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_980460e0-90c7-4c5c-9b55-09870145420f.jpg?v=1721109200","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/mirar-adentrolooking-within-poemas-escogidos-1954-2000-9780814330388","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
