Here's the cover of The New World Written: Selected Poems of Maria Baranda (Yale University Press, 2021), which I edited and translated in part from Spanish. Other translators include Mark Statman, Forrest Gander, Lara Crystal-Ornelas, Leticia Herandez-Linares, Stephen Kessler, Lorna Shaughnessy, Aurelia Cortes Peyron, and Maria Richardson. Maria Baranda is a leading poet of Mexico and has won the distinguished Efrain Huerta and Aquascalientes poetry prizes, as well as Spain's Francisco de Quevedo Prize for Ibero-American Poetry. The cover art is a detail from Vicente Rojo's Juego de cartas para ninos (2009). The book is available on Amazon Books or directly from Yale University Press.
