O Cadoiro: Poems
House of Anansi Press
$10.13
Rooted in medieval Galician-Portuguese cantigas, most untranslated before now, Erin Moure's poems take off from the title phrase, literally the place where falling is made. Also a word for waterfall, O Cadoiro opens the falling-place that humans inhabit, where poems help heal without necessarily resolving anything. Where many poets tend to disdain the lyric form, Moure embraces it -- returning to its roots, reveling in its beauty, and exposing its surprising modernity.
