BOOK DESCRIPTION:
A series of mesmerizing poems, SONNETS TO THE JAPIM BIRD depicts the forbidden love between an Amazonian indigenous woman (a Tupi-Kawahib) and her husband’s guest (a European explorer). In the tradition of poet Elizabeth Barrett Browning, SONNETS TO THE JAPIM BIRD uses the beautiful cadence of the English language in a haunting tale of love that breaks a sacred taboo in indigenous culture. The epigraph, in Portuguese, means “A woman is a very fine thing”—a saying from the Tupi-Kawahib, an ancient tribal people that live in Brazil.
