In her debut book, Ana Portnoy Brimmer exposes many truths about the suffering of colonial subjects in Puerto Rico. I jealously wished the poetic voice would have kept more details obscure. However, 'To Love an Isalnd' encapsulates a specific moment in Puerto Rican History. It is beautiful and painful, dire but hopeful.

Bravo, Ana! I look forward to the Spanish translation!

This collection of poetry was lovely, I enjoyed the way it was sectioned and the breadth of poem types.
