Fantastic New Review in Publishers Weekly for Malanga Chasing Vallejo
Great review in Publishers Weekly for Malanga Chasing Vallejo
“Americans do not lack for versions of Vallejo, but this bilingual selection has three merits. It’s a new and largely careful introduction to most of Vallejo’s career. . . . it comes with letters and documents, in an appendix, from the poet’s widow Georgette. And it comes from Malanga, who began as a player in Andy Warhol’s Factory and has since become a prolific, successful poet, filmmaker, and portrait photographer on his own. Malanga has been translating Vallejo since 1969; he does well with the poet’s sense of fatigue and with his strange blend of alienation and yearning.” —Publishers Weekly
