Jacaranda Whispers
Jacaranda Whispers
The Jacarandas Whisper pays homage to the amazing jacaranda trees that transform Mexico City into a purple spectacle heralding the arrival of spring.
Mexican writer Alberto Ruy Sánchez adds yet another secret garden to his opus of wonder. The Jacarandas Whisper is carefully structured into six sections of lyrical poems that reflect upon the paradoxical nature of the jacaranda trees, their immortal yet transient character, their origin myths, their multicultural history of migration, and the lessons they offer on the human condition. The book closes with a final Resounding Coda that celebrates the jacarandas power of communication: She whispers things when silent, / and says even more if you listen.
