Poems in Absentia & Poems from the Island and the World

Born on the island of Flores, between Europe and the United States, Pedro da Silveira captures the islander's longing for migratory movement, leading to departure and an inevitable return. These fresh and original poems express a deep connection to place, particularly, the insular world of the mid­Atlantic islands of the Azores.
