The heart is the toughest part of the body. Tenderness is in the hands.
The Country Between Us
The Country Between Us begins with a collection of poems on El Salvador, where Carolyn Forché worked as a journalist in the late 1970s and was deeply immersed in the country's political fight. Other poems by Forché are similarly intimate, urgent, and affecting. The picture of a compassionate, bold, and active young woman who has made her life a trip may be the end impression of her poems. She's been to a lot of places, as these poems show, but she also has the feeling of someone who is "coming from far and going far," as Ignazio Silone puts it.
