at 92nd Street Y

Nicole Delgado’s A Mano / By Hand, which moves through her life in New York, Mexico, Puerto Rico through a variety of communities and economies, proposes that poetry is the basic unit of a project of a life lived with dignity and joy. Her pamphlet, rendered into English by Carina del Valle Schorske, is part of UDP’s 2020 Pamphlet Series. “It is impossible to imagine contemporary Puerto Rican poetry without Nicole Cecilia Delgado. Her projects, collaborations, and energy have allowed emerging poets to see themselves as part of a larger network, and although she is only one of many creators, her presence has undeniably expanded what we can collectively imagine,” writes Raquel Salas Rivera.
