Description

Silence from the Forest is an exquisite bilingual (Spanish/English) poetry edition written by Esther Bendala Pavon and translated by Corinne J. Stanley. Esther's work is reminiscent of a young Pablo Neruda's contemplations on life, love, and death, transcended through nature. She takes the reader through a passionate journey of love immersed in the landscape of el Bosque, the White Pueblo village of her grandmother, as well as the effusiveness of the sea which informs Spain. In the gifted hands of translator Corinne Stanley, Esther's work keeps the reader spellbound. This truly is a superb bilingual collection of verse.
