Nancy Morejón

    August 7, 1944

    Nancy Morejón is a Cuban poet, critic, and essayist whose work is deeply engaged with Caribbean identity and history. Her writing, informed by her extensive knowledge of French and English literature and her own practice as a translator, explores themes of race, gender, and colonialism with a unique sensitivity. Morejón is a significant figure in Cuban letters, dedicated to both her own creative output and the promotion and critique of other writers' work, particularly through her role with Revista Union. Her influence extends beyond Cuba, as evidenced by her poetry being translated into numerous languages.

      Morejon's poetry gives us a mighty Cuba. A laughing Cuba. A determined Cuba. Walking in beauty in their country. Undefeated. -Sonia Sanchez
