Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - In this vibrant reflection of sound and word, poet Edwin Torres reignites the possibilities of poetry. From poems like ''Me No Habla Spic,'' a rumination of life's major moments, to ''Fixative,'' which exercises shifting vantage points, Torres is nimblesurfing through memory, definition, and forms of social address.
