This is a collection of bilingual poetry (the English poems are paired with their Spanish translations), where the author remains faithful to her credo: to make poetry of exquisite moments. Nancy Agabian writes:
“Whether she encounters the quotidian or the extraordinary, what she conveys is profound. In her voice you’ll find experiences of the cosmopolitan, the bold, and the bereft, a life concocting meals, savoring music, commingling with the natural world, surveying lovers, testifying to war, searching for art, caring for ill parents, and traveling across NYC and the world as a poetry diplomat and empath. As you read her insights, you will feel discomfited, soothed, moved, and loved. Expertly fusing form and content, navigating between whimsy and gravitas, Lola offers a unique vision of hope.”
