Birnam Wood awarded Best Translation in the Washington Independent Review of Books

Birnam Wood is awarded Best Translation in the Washington Independent Review of Books!

Maryland's new state poet laureate Grace Cavalieri writes in the Washington Independent Review of Books about Birnam Wood (Salmon Poetry): BEST TRANSLATION
Birnam Wood (El Bosque de Birnam) by José Manuel Cardona; translated from the Spanish by Birnam Wood El Bosque de Birnam (English and Spanish Edition) by José Manuel Cardona Birnam Wood El Bosque de Birnam (English and Spanish Edition) by José Manuel Cardona Birnam Wood El Bosque de Birnam (English and Spanish Edition) by José Manuel Cardona Hélène Cardona.
There’s something about Spanish poetry, this particular poetry, where nothing appears lost in translation. Its bold, declarative tone, elevated content, mystical moments, contemplation, and fire show through in Spanish and now English. Especially memorable are the 20 poems to Circe.
