商品詳細

Divided into three sections, This Mellow World tells the complex story of a protagonist on a quest to feel at home with his Portuguese ethnic identity. Engaging with the work of a range of Portuguese writers and poets, principally Eca de Queiros, this cycle of twenty-three poems excavates Oliver's family history, moving from his grandparents' journey from Sao Miguel to Boston in 1900 to his own return to the Azores in adulthood. The volume includes a preface from the poet.
