Abstract:
"Francisco Aragon extends the map of Latino poetry in this bilingual collection. Taking its title from the central plaza in Madrid, it chronicles an overseas journey both public and private. Life in the capital - taking in jazz at a cafe after dark, navigating the underground landscapes of the Metro to and from work - is interwoven with the more interior realms of loss in poems that mourn a parent, retrace the steps of a late mentor, or express the collective grief borne of terrorism."--BOOK JACKET.
