Noche de colibríes: Ekphrastic Poems by Xánath Caraza and published by Pandora lobo estepario Productions press is a bilingual chapbook, Spanish and English. Noche de colibríes: Ekphrastic Poems is synonymous with painting with words that which emerges from the center of a woman, poet. Polychromatic rhythms are expertly mixed throughout the pages of this book. Images accompany each poem which celebrates each image. This book goes beyond description to create a poem, a story, yet possessing rediscovery in each of them. Caraza, as previously demonstrated, is a painter-poet where each verse impregnates each page with color and is most certainly worth reading not only with one's sight, but also with one's senses of smell, touch, taste and sound. Noche de colibríes: Ekphrastic Poems por Xánath Caraza publicado por Pandora lobo estepario Productions press es un plaquette bilingue, español e inglés. Noche de colibríes: Ekphrastic Poems es sinónimo de pintar con palabras que emergen desde el centro de una mujer, poeta. Ritmos policrómaticos se mezclan expertamente entre las páginas de este libro. Imágenes acompañan cada poema que las celebra, no las describe sino crea un poema, una historia, redescubriéndolas. Caraza, como lo ha demostrado con anterioridad, es una pintora-poeta donde cada verso impregna la página con color y merece ser leído no tan sólo con la vista, sino con el olfato, el tacto, el gusto y el oído.
