Selected Writings
JoseMarti (1853-1895) is the most renowned political and literary figure in the history of Cuba. A poet, essayist, orator, statesman, abolitionist, and the martyred revolutionary leader of Cuba''s fight for independence from Spain, Marti lived in exile in New York for most of his adult life, earning his living as a foreign correspondent. Throughout the 1880s and early 1890s, Marti''s were the eyes through which much of Latin America saw the United States. His impassioned, kaleidoscopic evocations of that period in U.S. history, the assassination of James Garfield, the opening of the Brooklyn Bridge, the execution of the Chicago anarchists, the lynching of the Italians in New Orleans, and much more, bring it rushing back to life. Organized chronologically, this collection begins with his early writings, including a thundering account of his political imprisonment in Cuba at age sixteen. The middle section focuses on his journalism, which offers an image of the United States in the nineteenth century, its way of life and system of government, that rivals anything written by de Tocqueville, Dickens, Trollope, or any other European commentator. Including generous selections of his poetry and private notebooks, the book concludes with his astonishing, hallucinatory final masterpiece, "War Diaries," never before translated into English.

Come, Come - My Boiling Blood

release date: May 01, 2007
Come, Come - My Boiling Blood
Come, Come-My Boiling Blood contains the complete texts of Jose Marti''s first five books of poetry. Most readers know "Yo Soy un Hombre Sincero" because of the wonderful rendition by Pete Seeger, but to date the large body of Jose Marti''s poetic work has been unavailable in English translation. One of the greatest writers of Spanish America, Jose Marti is revered not only as the father of modernist poetry, but also of the Cuban independence movement. His political activism fueled his writing, motivating him to produce poetry, political manifestos, speeches, and hundreds of articles and reviews for journals worldwide. He is considered a hero by many for his leadership of the nationalist forces in the Cuban war of independence, which eventually led to his untimely death. His writings and political activism were based on strong personal beliefs of morality, independence, and patriotism, a combination that both his followers and readers have found compelling for over a hundred years. Jose Marti was born in Havana, Cuba. During his life he suffered imprisonment and exile for his beliefs. He was killed in battle with Spanish troops at the Battle of Dos Rios in 1895. Jack Agueros was born in East Harlem in 1934 and still resides in New York City. A poet, playwright, fiction writer, and translator, he has published three books of poetry and a collection of short stories titled Dominoes. He is the translator and editor of Song of the Simple Truth, a bilingual collection of poems by Julia de Burgos.
