{"product_id":"imagine-the-angels-of-bread-poems-9780393316865","title":"Imagine the Angels of Bread: Poems","description":"Combining the personal with the political in his fifth collection, Mart n Espada celebrates the bread of the imagination, the bread of the table, and the bread of justice. The heart of the collection is a series of autobiographical poems recalling family, school, neighborhood, and work experiences-from bouncer to tenant lawyer. There are moments of revelation and political transcendence here, which culminate in an elegy for the Puerto Rican poet Clemente Soto Velez, imprisoned for his advocacy of independence for Puerto Rico.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eEspada, Martín:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - \u003cstrong\u003eMartín Espada\u003c\/strong\u003e has published more than twenty books as a poet, editor, essayist and translator, including \u003cem\u003eVivas to Those Who Have Failed\u003c\/em\u003e and Pulitzer finalist \u003cem\u003eThe Republic of Poetry\u003c\/em\u003e.
