Synopsis

These bilingual poems from four chapbooks of thelast decade are collected in a single volume, along with twenty-two new poems. Sagel's voice often follows, but never cancels out, the Spanish voices of the people among whom he lived and worked.

Theresa Salazar Troy comments, "Sagel captures the stubbornness and fragility of a people firmly rooted to a place and an old but changing culture."
