Ep. 4: unsung immigrant songs
Today’s poems are a celebration of unsung immigrant songs. Framed in a familial and cultural context, dealing with topics of love and loss, life and death, identity and the relationship of the self to multiple language, these poems narrate the writer’s experience through a unique perspective of physical distance from the native homeland. Also, enjoy a reading of Pablo Neruda's poem Never Alone, With You.
