Title: Robello: A Perceptive and Powerful Observer of the Human Condition...
Review: Poet Ariel Rubello's 128 page volume of poetry is gritty and potent stuff. In "Sus Consejos," in a voice unique in its resonance, she tells of forbidden love and unsolicited advice:Mama said, "Latin loves don't last long."(stick to your own kind)She knows how hardTo sleep so goodToo late for herFor me he's goneUnder my skin another splinterUnder my sheet another crumb....Robello's "Carta Personal" in its evocative cadences invokes telling social as well as personal commentary:Abuelits's hands wake mesoft as masa they tell of maquiladora murderyoung girls left crumpled, braids cut offbits of pay slips found under pink nails....Ariell Robello, has demonstrated herself to be a uniquely perceptive observer of the human condition in general and an authentic and powerful emergent poetic voice.Dr. John R.
