extraordinary memoir, My Father's Love, Volume I: Portrait of the
Poet as a Young Girl, looks at the world through the eyes of a
child who knows what love is, a girl labeled beautiful, a victim of
rape, incest and psychological terrorism. It is a story of survival, the
story of the genesis of an American epic poet. It will change your
perspective of the world forever Doubiago's book-length poems Hard
Country, South America Mi Hija and The Husband Arcane: The
Arcane of O along with a dozen other books of poetry, the latest,
the critically acclaimed, Love on the Streets, published in 2008 by
University of Pittsburgh Press, have already established her as a major
American voice in poetry. It has been fifteen years since her highly
acclaimed book of short stories, The Book of Seeing With One's Own
Eyes was published. This book will re-establish her as a major
voice in prose as well as poetry.
