Description: "La lira de la ira and some irate lyrics is a collection of poems that represents a meditation on life and the human condition. Compiled of works written over three decades, these poems document Santiago Daydi-Tolson's devotion to writing poetry as an intellectual and intimate spiritual discipline. The poetry, written mostly in Spanish but with some in English, taps into the haunting enchantment of the physical world, communes with all manners of terra's creatures, and develops the lyrics of expression, communication, misdirection, and paradox. Daydi-Tolson's aesthetically communicative use of poetic language provides the reader with an emotional understanding of the human spirit and its conflicts. The poet's soul is haunted and melancholy, his mythology a profound personal theology, his two-sided, double-talking tongue as sharp as a scalpel slashing witticisms" --
