Hélène Cardona Instagram – So grateful for all the literary magic at the poetry events I recently participated in:
* The Philosophical Research Society’s historic library: a night of poems that dive into the deep questions, exploring the vastness within & without.
* The Second Sunday Poetry Series, in the Studio Theatre ❤️
* Celebrating White Pine Press’s 50th Anniversary at Beyond Baroque, Venice.
* Point Loma Nazarene University: 25 Poets to Celebrate 25 Years @PLNU San Diego.

Hélène Cardona’s Life in Suspension is called “a vivid self-portrait as scholar, seer and muse” by John Ashbery, and David Mason described Dreaming My Animal Selves as “liminal, mystical and other-worldly,” adding, “this is a poet who writes in a rare light.” Hailed as visionary by Richard Wilbur, Cardona’s luminous poetry explores consciousness, the power of place, and ancestral roots. It is poetry of alchemy and healing, a gateway to the unconscious and the dream world. She has authored 5 translations, is the recipient of over 20 awards & honors, and her work has been translated into 19 languages.
