Description
Epithalamion, Nick Carbó's latest collection of poems, enthralls readers with poems reflecting Carbó's origins, identity, and memories as a Filipino American growing up in his adopted country. Carbó's poetic genius blends mysticism, tenderness, and quiet passion in a new collection that embraces grief, nostalgia, connection and disconnection that reveal his influences and originality. With poignant imagery and lyricism, he explores these themes and converses with the reader's senses. Nick Carbó's Epithalamion reaches far and wide, connecting its stories, sentiments, and ideas with people--wherever they may be.
