The Birth of the Sun: Selected Poems of Pablo Antonio Cuadra (1935-1985). Greensboro: Unicorn Press, 1988. (Edition and Translation)"This is a very important contribution to the body of Latin American poetry in English translation…White's very capable translations are helpfully printed alongside the originals."
Marjorie Agosín, Choice"Steven F. White has devoted much talent to effect recognition of Nicaraguans by an English-speaking audience. His collection of interviews of writers, Culture & Politics in Nicaragua (Lumen Books, 1986), and his translations of Pablo Antonio Cuadra are landmarks of our appreciation of Nicaraguan literature."
Gregory Kolovakos, Small Press"Selections from 50 years of Cuadra's poetry and introductory comments by Nicaraguan critic/writer Jorge Eduardo Arellano make this an excellent introdution to this important but little translated poet."
Thom Tammaro, Library Journal"Because Cuadra is a poet of great stature whose writing is not as widely known in the United States as it should be, a selection of his work in a bilingual edition is reason for celebration. I welcome the publication of The Birth of the Sun and commend Steven F. White for undertaking a difficult project."
