This volume combines the poems from Espada's critically acclaimed collection of poetry TRUMPETS FROM THE ISLANDS OF THEIR EVICTION with a selection of poems from his first book, The Immigrant Iceboy's Bolero, which is now out of print. Espada's work is characterized by its intensity, its sincerity, and its insight into the lives of diverse characters. Influenced by his Puerto Rican background, Espada gives a distinctive voice to his community. "Martin Espada defines political poetry for the turn of the century"--The Nation.
