Hélène Cardona conceives poetry as « a gesture, a movement, an opening towards a greater truth or understanding ».
http://frenchculture.org/books/events...I'll read from "Life In Suspension / La Vie Suspendue" and "Dreaming My Animal Selves /
Le Songe de mes Âmes Animales" in English and in French, as well as my translation Beyond Elsewhere (by Gabriel Arnou-Laujeac), winner of a Hemingway Grant.
Huge thanks to the French Consulate in Los Angeles and the Cultural Services | French Embassy in the US for listing my event at the Los Angeles Times Festival of Books, April 22 @ 1:40 PM. On the Poetry Stage.
