Quote by José Manuel Cardona, Hélène Cardona

“I carry on in this island whipped by typhoons Chained to the sea as the waves Crash against the dam, and I proclaim you. I scream, until hoarse, your beloved name. —José Manuel Cardona, from Birnam Wood (Salmon Poetry, 2018), translated by Hélène Cardona”

She didn't understand why she'd wanted to leave this lovely, lush, watery place; at this time of year, she was always sure she'd never want to leave again.”
