Translated by Celeste Kostopulos-Cooperman. Composed during the time of isolation wrought by the COVID-19 pandemic, Marjorie Agos"n's bilingual book of poetry, BEYOND THE TIME OF WORDS/MÁS ALLÁ DEL TIEMPO DE LAS PALABRAS embraces that darkness with profound compassion and humanity. Born in Chile, Agosín came to the United States as a political exile, and her prolific career has been inspired by both political activism and the pursuit of social justice. While bearing witness to our collective grief, these poems also offer reminders of bravery and ultimately hope: They are meant, the poet says, "to cleanse and mend the world."Poetry. Latinx Studies. Women's Studies. Jewish Studies.
