Praise for this book
Snyder is a poet of memory and experience, of longings and blue light, and the three actualities of her world, her past--in Colombia, Europe, and the United States--come vividly alive in this magical book of discoveries, of a woman who matures into her own country.--Edward Hirsch
Esperanza and Hope, is a moving and fully imagined autobiography in verse narrated by her nominal sister identities of passion and faith. Told with verve and wit, her story allows readers to live a double life that's as vivid and riotously complicated as a Jean-Luc Goddard film.--Michael Collier
