New York, New York. A Poetic Journey is a collection of poems that will satisfy those who thirst for stimulation. Each poem delves into universal topics: love and its possibilities, the transcending of boundaries, liberation of self, and spiritual growth. The book gives birth to new concepts and resurrects forgotten ones.
This is a wonderful book for use in Spanish immersion classrooms, or by any teacher wishing to expose his or her students to the Spanish language and culture. It tells the story of a woman who falls in love with an older man. She leaves her boyfriend, her family, and her country to meet this man who is battling against cancer. Every relapse in the disease means that they can have a glimpse of normal life, but how long will he be healthy enough for them to be completely happy together?
Written in Spanish and English, these poems are the creation of an extremely well educated woman whose life experience and literary production bridge Europe and America. In New York, New York. A Poetic Journey, Lapachet writes about ordinary, commonplace feelings in such a manner that the absolute uniqueness of each is captured.
