'In City of Coughing and Dead Radiators, his fourth book, Martin Espada defines political poetry for the turn of the century... (This) is a book to be opened by those who know the consequences of poets speaking out, but also a book for a larger audience convinced that poetry is a source for survival.' - Ray Gonzalez, The Nation.
