To read this poetry is to take a journey from the outer to the inner. No matter what your background or belief, you will find things to ponder and wonder at. Subtle and intense, they will take you on a voyage of discovery of yourself and the world around you. --Erik Larson, chair, Department of Religious Studies, Florida International University Fugue presents the musings of a very young but exceedingly bright and incisive mind. Readers of all ages and from all walks of life will most certainly locate themselves somewhere in the moments and moods Alejandro Casas Reyes captures so beautifully in poetic language in this work. --Albert Kafui Wuaku, Associate Professor of Ethnography and African/African Diaspora Religions, Florida International University This collection of poems captures the drops of time that make up what we call experience. True poiesis, it enables the moments to bubble up rather than channeling the moments into any specific end. An experience-inducing read from a highly attuned author. --Whitney Bauman, Associate Professor of Religious Studies, Florida International University Fugue is a magnificent book of poems. Alejandro delightfully takes the reader on a deep journey. This journey is a road full of live colors that makes the reader gently smile and in other parts tears can easily come. The reader can submerge in these chronological poems and feel and identify with the author. --Nery Maiquez, reverend, St Lazarus Church, Miami, Florida
