by Edwin Torres (Author)
Edwin Torres' poetry is always driving for transformation. The poetics of his language bridges his neo-immigrant identity to the universal situation of humans finding their place in the cosmos. quanundrum explores these problems of hybridity in bodies, themes, and the physicality of Torres' visual poetics that refracts through an ecology of language as a call for readers to invent new possibilities every time they turn the page. Torres' book emerges from his " many angled" selves-- writer, father, Puerto Rican No' merican, worker, designer, acolyte, master-- for readers to revel in.
