Beschreibung
In
Alborada (Dawn): A Cross-Cultural Memoir in Poetry
, Nylda Dieppa sketches the formative and transformative experiences of her lifetime—from childhood on the
island of Puerto Rico through maturity in the continental United States—as paralleled by the sun’s passage through the times of the day. This enhanced, newly retitled
edition of Dieppa’s award-winning
Alborada: A Poetic Memoir Across Cultures
adds fourteen new and ten revised poems to inspire the joys of spiritual and emotional
healing.
From the dawning innocence of a girl’s first crush alongside the rise of a young woman’s longing to belong and be loved, Dieppa shines daylight on the anguish and
delights of both growing up and parenting at every age. Her lyrical and narrative poems highlight the shadows cast by culture shock, and they reveal the encroaching
darkness of sorrow and betrayal as the sun sets on a thirty-eight-year marriage. Yet
Alborada
also illuminates the wonder of deliverance from midnight’s despair to the
hope and wholeness of a new day’s dawn.
