DESCRIPTION

This is the Tenth Anniversary Bilingual Spanish Edition of Blood Sugar Canto. In this edition, the poems are in English and Spanish on facing pages (print version only).

Blood Sugar Canto is a powerful hymn to life and to her own body by a "curandera-poet" struggling to transmute the fear and despair of diabetes into healing.She sings of the syringes, the paraphernalia of this new world she must live in, its losses and griefs, its pain, and her memories of those in her family who have died of this disease.
