Ricardo Sternberg’s writing is controlled and superb.

Fairy tale-like pieces rest happily next to probing looks at the urban psyche; whimsical pieces about childhood mesh with harsh, adult realities. Sternberg’s poetry has appeared in the best of this continent’s literary journals–Poetry [Chicago], The Paris Review, The Nation, American Poetry Review, Canadian Literature, Ploughshares, The Virginia Quarterly, among others.

Ricardo Sternberg was born in Rio de Janeiro. His family moved to the United States when he was fifteen. He has taught at the University of Toronto since 1979 and he translates Portugese/Brazilian literature into English. Sternberg is the author of Map of Dreams, also published by Véhicule Press.
