Esperanza Snyder
Esperanza Snyder is a poet of memory and experience, of longings and blue light, and the three actualities of her world, her past-in Colombia, Europe, and the United States-come vividly alive in this magical book of discoveries, of a woman who matures into her own country. - Edward Hirsch
Esperanza and Hope, is a moving and fully imagined autobiography in verse narrated by her nominal sister identities of passion and faith. Told with verve and wit, her story allows readers to live a double life that’s as vivid and riotously complicated as a Jean-Luc Goddard film. - Michael Collier
There’s a romance narrative of names here, ranging in territory from Colombia, America, Italy, and Spain. And these rich cognates reveal their personal history in a language of poetry saturated and in keeping with the oldest of themes-love, loss, and reconciliation. - Stanley Plumly
