Recenzii

"What characterizes all of [the poems] is precise and surprising language, a brilliance of affect, that establishes Guevara as one of the most original yound American poets."
--Poetry Magazine

“This book evokes a world utterly specific and individual and, at the same time, the world we all live in: a world both beautiful and ruined.”
—Lynn Emanuel

"Poems of the River Spirit is more than just a compassionate view of the world of workers in the Pittsburgh area. Guevara's own Hispanic and European roots also turn him toward a wider, almost Whitmanesque vision of the pther people in other geographies. Good work with solid, inventive surprises in almost every page."
—Ron Arias

"Guevara writes with immense poise and authority. His images are exact and true; his language is raw yet utterly polished. . . .the word multicultural might have been coined for this poet, who alludes to Dante as casually as he deploys Spanish slang. Voices haunt his book. . . ."
—Patricia Monaghan
