A propos de cet article

A SIGNED FIRST EDITION OF ALVAREZ'S POETRY OF EXILE, IDENTITY, LOVE, AND RETURN. SIGNED AND DATED IN THE YEAR OF PUBLICATION. Signed Julia Alvarez in a large hand across the title page and dated 9-8-95. The signature is not personalized. The date places the signing only a few months after the stated June 1995 first printing and firmly within the book's year of publication. WITH PUBLISHER'S PROMOTIONAL POSTCARD. Laid in is the original Dutton promotional postcard for The Other Side / El Otro Lado, reproducing the book's colorful jacket artwork, 'Emigrating to the U.S.' by German Perez, on the recto. The verso promotes Alvarez as the author of How the García Girls Lost Their Accents and In the Time of the Butterflies and introduces the present volume as her new collection of poetry. BETWEEN TWO WORLDS. Julia Alvarez's The Other Side / El Otro Lado gathers poems concerned with immigration, memory, family, love, language, and the experience of living between the United States and the Dominican Republic. The collection culminates in the twenty-one-part title sequence recounting Alvarez's return to her native Dominican Republic. PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS: Octavo hardcover. 8.75 inches; 155 pages. Bound in orange paper-covered boards backed in black cloth, the spine lettered in orange; pictorial dust jacket, priced $18.95 on the front flap. First Edition, First Printing. CONDITION: FINE IN A FINE DUST JACKET. A new, giftable copy. LITERARY SIGNIFICANCE: POETRY OF IMMIGRATION AND RETURN. Alvarez's poetry explores many of the concerns central to her fiction: displacement, cultural identity, memory, language, and the immigrant experience. These themes move from childhood exile through adult relationships to the title sequence centered upon the poet's return to the Dominican Republic. AN IMPORTANT DOMINICAN-AMERICAN VOICE. Published after How the García Girls Lost Their Accents and In the Time of the Butterflies, the collection belongs to the period in which Alvarez became a prominent literary voice addressing Dominican-American experience and bicultural identity. SUBJECTS: Julia Alvarez, Dominican Republic, Dominican-American Experience, Immigration, Exile, Cultural Identity, Women Poets, Hispanic American Poetry, Caribbean Literature, Memory, Homecoming, Bilingual Identity, Poetry, Latino Literature, Dominican-American Literature, Women's Literature.…
