After Paris: Persona Poems

By: Laura Marello

In this volume of persona poetry, voices from history and literature become the speakers of poems to their partners, companions, adversaries. In part one, The Lovers. In part two, The Fighters, the recipients are now the speakers of the poems, who answer back. Among those who reach out, Michelangelo calls through time to the warrior Joan of Arc. In Brazil, politician Carlos Lacerda blames poet Elizabeth Bishop for the suicide of architect Lota Soares. French fighter pilot and memoirist/fiction writer Antoine de St. Exup ry advises his most endearing character, the Fox. Hear their answers.
