Bøger af Mariela Griffor

Griffor is entirely at home in the world at large, and in her poems she chronicles an unbroken continuum from her closest familial and companionable relationships to the hazards of true citizenship in our gigantic globalized society."--Jim Schley.

Poetry. Latino/Latina Studies. DECLASSIFIED, the new collection by Mariela Griffor, Chilean poet exiled to Sweden in the 1980s and now living in the American Midwest, is an enigmatic, at times erotic and often passionate exploration of relationships and politics, finding their shared tropes of deception, subterfuge, and even espionage. Ultimately, the book's focus is on love--between husbands and wives, friends, and a mother and her daughter--and how, in the most challenging of times, only the strongest bonds resist decay.
