My Words Mean Something
Poems that dance to the rhythm of a song.
Day's Night
Since his much-praised Rediscovering Cuba: A Personal Memoir, Reyes's readers have come to expect one thing, the unexpected. This time he does it again with this new collection of poems that will grip you by their intensity and profundity.Day's Night are poems that map the trajectory of the soul's sojourn through the many pitfalls of love's multiple consequences.There are many memorable poems in Day's Night, making it difficult to choose a favorite. The second poem “Toss me now,” is filled with such isolation and anxiety that, when compared to “Death,” the last poem, one can almost live the pathos from whence these stemmed.Day's Night are poems to be treasured for years to come.
Rediscovering Cuba
This is the riveting story of a family's trip to their native land of Cuba. In 1998, the author was informed of his grandmother's terminal illness. Curious to unravel the mystery that for many years has enshrouded Cuba, he convinced his mother and aunt to accompany him and revisit their native land, the country they had left behind forty and twenty years, respectively. This book, part diary, part memoir, is based on this memorable and nostalgic trip. We are taken to Santiago de Cuba and to Boniato, a small town on the outskirts of the city rumored to have been built atop an old Indian cemetery. Along the way, we meet colorful characters and eccentric family members set against a rich background of folklore, local color and politics: we meet the author's aunt Mimi who as a girl thought a cow was her mother; his great grandmother who died of a stroke after arguing with a flock of pigeons; and even ghosts rumored to haunt his small family house in Boniato.

In an unrelated incident, an undercover DEA agent hears of a massacre perpetrated by the members of a cartel somewhere in the Canyon. Seeking to find out whether there's a...
The Politics of Moral Sin
This book analyzes the problems that arise when women's rights conflict with the views of conservative organized religion. Specifically, it addresses the legalization - or lack thereof - of divorce and abortion in three recently democratized Catholic countries: Spain, Chile, and Argentina. Offering a vital and timely contribution to political debates on democratic consolidation, social policy, gender, politics and religion, it challenges many of the accepted assumptions and conclusions in these fields, arguing that to understand the political dynamics and policy trajectories on these issues we must first analyze the distribution of both economic and political power. Merike Blofield moves the...
