The new issue of The Atlanta Review contains an excellent 45-page portfolio of “Uruguayan Women Poets,” edited by the indefatigable Jesse Lee Kercheval. This portfolio is a preview of Kercheval’s next anthology, Strange Flowers: Poems by Uruguayan Women, due out in the next year from Diálogos.

This Atlanta Review issue contains my translation of a strange metaphysical poem, “I Travel,” by the mid-twentieth-century poet Sara de Ibáñez (1909–1971). Strange Flowers will include this poem and eight more of my Ibáñez translations.
