Abstract
These poems work the geography they possess, moving as fully as their peripheral vision permits; their area delineated by a quietly biding moment revealing the narrator's uncertainties and desires, and especially her romantic relationship. The visual efforts are detailed and many times drawn from the natural and/or the foreign, traveling from the New England coast to Spain and Argentina, while incorporating translated works from Latin American poets--Heberto Padilla and Dulce María Loynaz--, the wonder at the expansiveness of another place isolating and contrasting.
