Book Description Plastified softcover. Condition: New. Excellent condition. The poems in Burning Bridges explore both new literary forms and a variety of subjects, including the psychology of exile. In poems that range widely in tone from melancholy and whimsy to bitterness, Naín Nómez writes elegantly about emotional fragmentation, the effort required to assimilate a new language, and the unfinished business of his former life. He also casts a discerning eye on his adopted land. Nómez lives in Toronto and Santiago. He is the editor of Chilean Literature in Canada and serves on the editorial board of El espiritu del valle. He is the author of Historias del reino vigilado / Stories of a Guarded Kingdom (1981). Poems from Burning Bridges (Países como puentes levadizos) won first prize in the Spanish writing competition organized by the University of Alberta. Christina Shantz is the foremost Spanish-English translator in Canada. She lived in Ottawa. If book and packaging weight exceeds 400gms, additional shipping charges may apply. Editor: Christina Shantz (Translator). New. 72 pp. 15.5x23 cm; 158 gm. Seller Inventory # 7765
