Editorial Reviews

This bilingual edition, translated by a Cuban American living in Union City, NJ, is the first complete rendering of the classic Versos sencillos, written by Cuban poet and patriot Mart . One of the great political and literary figures of the 19th century, Mart lived most of his life in exile, conducting his struggle for freedom from the United States and several Latin American countries and finally dying while fighting against the Spanish in his native Cuba. This edition of a classic of Latin American literature is part of the effort of Arte P blico Press and the University of Houston to recover and disseminate the U.S. Hispanic literary heritage. Tellechea's excellent translation and introduction brings Mart to life for both Spanish- and English-speaking Latinos, and the modest price allows a wide spectrum of readers to become acquainted with or reacquainted with Mart 's spiritual autobiography. Recommended for public and academic libraries.--Carmen J. Palmieri
