Padre Tierra: A Poem in 50 Sections by Spanish poet Mariano Zaro, carefully translated into English by Blas Falconer. This bilingual edition offers readers a unique opportunity to engage with the poem in both its original Spanish and its thoughtfully rendered English form. At its heart, Padre Tierra is a deeply personal and ambitious exploration inspired by Mariano Zaro's own relationship with his father, a farmer, and the rugged, evocative landscape of his childhood home in Spain. Through this lens, the book-length poem delves into the father's life and enduring legacy, serving as a means for the son to understand his own identity-his fears, his revelations, and his transformative journey from childhood to adulthood.
