In this deeply moving bilingual collection, renowned New Mexican poet E. A. Tony Mares, posthumously unveils his passionate exploration of the fractured heart and haunting shadows of the Spanish Civil War, a conflict that continues to echo in the political upheavals of our contemporary times. Mares embarks on a captivating dialogue with heroes, demons, anarchists, cardinals, beggars, and poets, taking us on a historical journey through the convex mirror of time to the blood-stained streets of Madrid, Guernica, and Barcelona. He confronts the assassins of Federico García Lorca, seeking justice for their crimes against poetry and humanity. Throughout the collection, the narrator assumes the roles of both participant and commentator, employing a lyrical and direct language style. In addition to Mares' parallel Spanish and English poems, this book features a prologue by Enrique Lamadrid, an introduction by Fernando Martín Pescador, and an epilogue by Susana Rivera. Carefully nurtured and completed by friends and family, this remarkable work will captivate Mares enthusiasts and readers alike, offering an unexpected gift from the masterful voice of a literary legend.
