Selected by Gander from throughout López-Colomé's five books in Spanish, these exceptional poems confront the confinements of fate, history, and misbegotten beliefs.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn forms that blur back and forth between poetry and prose, López-Colomé uses spare and honest language to describe the music of dreams, faith, and faithlessness; hers are poems of the soul resuscitated from the shackles of the body. As Gander notes in his Introduction: \"[This] poetry is philosophical and exacting, pared into short, sharp lines, obsidian flakes.\" Indeed, the fierce intelligence and insistent moral and spiritual engagement of López-Colomé's poetry situate her among the most significant contemporary Mexican poets. No Shelter is a bilingual edition, with English translations appearing in the first half of the text and the Spanish originals in the second.","brand":"Macmillan","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47855993553122,"sku":"MTO-MACMILLAN-2026-06-3-6.75-525","price":37.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0569\/9898\/5881\/files\/book_524__1LTgC_DX.jpg?v=1780489346","url":"https:\/\/layitflat.com\/en-ca\/products\/no-shelter-the-selected-poems-of-pura-l-pez-colom","provider":"Lay it Flat Publishing Group","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
