Book Description

“Poemas en Tránsito” is a poetry book narrating my personal experiences, as I commute to work in the number 1 Train, which runs from 242nd Street in the Bronx to Battery Park, in Manhattan. In the poems, I use the kaleidoscope of sounds, visuals and people in the subway to relate some of my experiences. In its totality, the book is a compendium of poems selected from my poetic production starting in 1976, under the guidance of my illustrious and respected, Professor Jaime Montesinos. His intellectual infl uence and guidance were the midwives of this book.
