Reviews

"Agosín is a poet of enchantments—an enchanted poet—who has declared war on forgetfulness and oblivion. She is one of our necessary voices, a magical singer who will not be defeated by history. —Edward Hirsch, author, How to Read a Poem

"Agosín is a mystic poet whose clarity of vision is superceded only by her courage. Among the Angels of Memory is her most ambitious and perhaps best book to date." —Demetria Martinez, author, Mother Tongue
