Your browser doesn’t support HTML5 audio

  Norma Cantú is a poet and a professor of English at the University of Texas at San Antonio.  Her latest collaboration, which she calls a "collaborative suite," is a collection of poems and art by Marta Sánchez.  Norma talks about the evocative nature of trains, and how the poetry and artwork came together almost synchronously.  

For our Poem of the Week, Norma reads the first 2 poems in the collection.
