Lavender Ink – Diálogos

1995

Description:

Most Lavender Ink titles are American poetry, fiction, or nonfiction. The Diálogos imprint is devoted to literatures which have cross-cultural significance, primarily but not exclusively literature in translation. Our mission is change the world through poetry, as most of the fiction we publish could rightly be called poetic. We believe that great literature both chronicles the age and influences the future, and we also believe that it is inherently valuable to read and study the literatures of nations, languages and cultures other than one’s own, as well as forward-looking and socially engaged work from one’s own home town. Thus we publish poets from New Orleans but also California and New York, and we have published poetry and fiction in translation from more than twenty nations in Latin America, Europe, and Africa. We hope that the eclectic nature of our collection inspires dialog, both literal and textual, across borders of all kinds.

There are currently no books in the Five Colleges from this press.
