The Fire's Journey (Part II: Creation of Myself)

By Eunice Odio

Poetry. Latino/Latina Studies. Translated from the Spanish by Keith Ekiss, Sonia P. Ticas, and Mauricio Espinoza. "Sleep not, sleep not, live in vigilance..." Eunice Odio continues her epic poem on language and the fate of the poet with THE FIRE'S JOURNEY (PART II: CREATION OF MYSELF). Risking the entirety of existence in his quest to counter the forces of chaos, the poet- hero Ion assumes bodily form and enters the world to battle the Void, the emblem of darkness. Along the way, he's joined by Dedalus, the master labyrinth-builder who guides the poet on his travels and warns Ion of the trials ahead. A much-neglected masterpiece of 20th- century Latin American poetry, THE FIRE'S JOURNEY will be published by Tavern Books in an English translation across four volumes.
