Resumen del Libro

ECLIPSE is the third poetry collection written by Alicia Z. Galvan. A very appropriate title for 1996, the year of a double eclipse, this collection has a bilingual format like the authors previous publication in 1995. The converged feminine & masculine double moon design on the cover is enigmatic & representative of the poems. ECLIPSE is subdivided into five sections. Alicia speaks of emotional injustice in its universal sense, & its connection to the family, social attitudes, physical healing, using these themes to weave into her work, a subtle reprimand. The author is also an artist & her surrealist illustrations enhance her passionate, strong & powerful work. ECLIPSE warns you of deceit, betrayal, & social bias, hiding in persons closest to us. She assures you that anger accompanied by tears is normal in emotional growth & not an element of weakness. But she also writes of a universal mysticism & spirituality, a type of healing without preaching. She warns of social eclipses & their similarity to the natural phenomenon. Alicia Z. Galvan uses poetry to advise that we should protect our minds & our hearts because they are intimately ours. ISBN 0- 9644836-2-9, Alicia Z.
