Cartas a Borges por Stephen Kuusisto



 Stephen Kuusisto utiliza los viajes, lugares,  religión,  música,  arte y  soledad para explorar la relación entre  ver, la ceguera, y el ser. En los poemas dirigidos a Jorge Luís Borges, otro poeta que vivió con ceguera, Kuusisto  aprovecha la capacidad negativa derivada de la ceguera que crea una intimidad con profunda imaginación y percepciones  poco comunes.
