Comments about the American Library
“An unforgettable and distinctive feature of this collection is the pairing of poets from across the pond with artists from here: word and image turn the Atlantic into a fine rain and the terrestrial sphere into a marble to play with. The depth of the illustrated verse, the color of the drawing emphasizing the poetic word make this collection speak a Spanish language that obtains outstanding in Pentecost and the spiritual Gift of Tongues, surpassing with honors the coronation of the Tower of Babel raised upon the Pillars of Hercules.” (Luis Mayo)
