    Martin Dickinson Reading

    Description
    Dickinson is the author of I Am That Road, Life List Notes, What a Windstorm Teaches, and My Concept of Time.

     “Dickinson’s road is an assembly of lines, of geometries and definitive materials in search of eternity, built to withstand time — prefabricated lines stretched across the plane, awaiting a wanderer. The immigrant walks among the verses and scrap metal. At this point, language intersects, and Dickinson’s Spanish opens a slit for introspection — for circular memories like slices of lemon, and divine journeys that end in floral flames. The relentless path remains; the lines lead forward, but also upward — a poetic pilgrimage that drags the asphalt and fuses it with a jacaranda tree in a bilingual space.” 
    - Daniela Hernádez Rodríguez, Johns Hopkins Department of Modern Languages and Literatures.
