BEYOND THE WAVES

About the Book

Essentially, Beyond the Waves is a natural extension of my first bilingual book: Waves/Olas that has fifty poems in English and twenty four in Spanish; none is a translation of the other. In Beyond the Waves all the poems are in English. The new Spanish poems are yet to come in a separate volume.
