Lunch Poems - Aleida Rodriguez

The monthly Noontime Poetry Reading series in the Morrison Room continues with Aleida Rodriguez today, Thursday, March 1, from 12:10 to 12:50.

Aleida Rodriguez was born on a kitchen table in Havana, Cuba. Her first book of poetry, Garden of Exile, published by Sarabande Books, won the Kathryn A. Morton Prize in Poetry. Marilyn Hacker writes of her work, "This is a first book of remarkable range and maturity…The river of Rodriguez's memory is fed by two languages…" Her poetry is lush and emotionally fresh.

Aleida Rodriguez lives in Los Angeles and works as a freelance translator and editor.
