To Pay for Our Next Breath: Poems Volume 12

By Alfonso Zapata

Book Overview

The TRP Southern Poetry Breakthrough Prize: Kentucky

In tackling music, art, television, family, and environmental & health crises, To Pay for Our Next Breath confronts the human need to make sense of love and disaster by processing them through the work of others, with art helping push people through difficult times. Through analyzing the place of art in our lives, Alfonso Zapata examines the give-and-take nature of creation, empowering the artist, while simultaneously uplifting the reader/viewer/listener in giving art meaning beyond the mortal boundaries of the artist.
