Lights Off Water: XXV Catalan Poems

by Anna Crowe (Editor), Iolanda Pelegri (Translator)

Revealing a deep-rooted Catalonian literary tradition long suppressed by the Spanish government during Franco’s regime, this remarkable collection of 25 poems illustrates how Catalan poetry has blossomed in the past quarter-century. The pieces, each by a different poet, were written between 1978 and 2002 and offer an insightful look into this period of abrupt change.
