Igloria\u003c\/b\u003e (Author)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn many cultures, a caul is considered talismanic; and a child born with it, possessing luck or protection. Luisa A. Igloria invokes this metaphor to weave poems exploring the veiled intervals of transition experienced by those in the diaspora-- or by anyone who has felt a severing from their origins. The poems in \u003ci\u003eCaulbearer\u003c\/i\u003e enter spaces not only of nostalgia, loss, and impossible return. They also offer opportunities for glimpsing pleasure in the re-imagining and telling of our own stories, for as long and as many times as we need, in a world still full of beauty and mystery.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eOriginally from Baguio City, Luisa A.
