Review
"A Bird is Not a Stone is a fabulous, landmark collection, an example of poetry's ability to transcend borders, cultures and languages in order to celebrate our shared humanity." — Carol Ann Duffy, British Poet Laureate
Review
"It is no surprise that great art is born out of its suffering . . . Therefore this exquisite book of poems must be all the more welcomed—by all those who love art, who would denounce oppression, and who want to read the songs of those living behind the wall." — Emma Thompson, Oscar-winning actor
Review
"Angry, celebratory, bawdy and moving, these are poems by fine poets, translated by fine poets. They feel like the first offerings of the Cafavys, Nerudas and Lorcas of today, brought fresh to the modern reader." — Andrew Marr, journalist and political commentator
