Alborada (Dawn)

Bag om Alborada (Dawn)

In Alborada (Dawn): A Cross-Cultural Memoir in Poetry, Nylda Dieppa sketches the formative and transformative experiences of her lifetime-from childhood on the island of Puerto Rico through maturity in the continental United States-as paralleled by the sun's passage through the times of the day. This enhanced, newly retitled edition of Dieppa's award-winning Alborada: A Poetic Memoir Across Cultures adds fourteen new and ten revised poems to inspire the joys of spiritual and emotional healing. From the dawning innocence of a girl's first crush alongside the rise of a young woman's longing to belong and be loved, Dieppa shines daylight on the anguish and delights of both growing up and parenting at every age. Her lyrical and narrative poems highlight the shadows cast by culture shock, and they reveal the encroaching darkness of sorrow and betrayal as the sun sets on a thirty-eight-year marriage. Yet Alborada also illuminates the wonder of deliverance from midnight's despair to the hope and wholeness of a new day's dawn.
