Sinossi

In this his fifth book of poems, Caribbean-American poet, Rene' A. Martin continues his explorations of themes both profound (the meaning of human existence) and diverting (how our seemingly intelligent species yet manages to display such absurdity). Ultimately, the poetry is an attempt to look into, discern, and explore what lies at the core of the human heart. The book begins with new poems, most written over the last four years. Subsequent poems are extracted from the previous four books, with some revision, beginning with the most recent and ending with his first publication. They appear in this order: Shoal of Time (2010); When Darkness Comes (2007); Bending The Light (2005); Seashells (2003).

L'autore

Rene' A. Martin, a professor of English at Miami-Dade College in Florida, USA, is a Caribbean-American poet who grew up in what is today known as The Republic of Trinidad and Tobago. Many of the poems in his earlier books are informed by his experiences growing up in and later, revisiting his island homeland. Inevitably, though, his experiences in the US, where he has lived since 1988, and in the many countries he has visited, have yielded additional material and inspiration for his poetry. Above all, his hope is that the poems in this book will delight his readers.
