"I have felt [elation] with Don Share's versions of Miguel Hernandez: but this is also because he is a fine poet in his own right, one who surrenders his sensibilities to the task of transference."-Nobel Laureate Derek Walcott on Don Share's translation of I Have Lots of Heart: Selected Poems, by Miguel Hernandez. Don Share's debut collection, Union, is comprised of unsympathetic portraits from his life. Unflinchingly severe and brutally honest, these poems consider the experience of divorce, among a host of other subjects. For all of its darkness, however, Union refuses to be bleak. Share is the curator of the George Edward Woodberry Poetry Room at Harvard University and is the poetry editor at the Partisan Review.
