La Rebeld A Del Sol ( Rebellious Sun )
Paperback Edition: 1
Charles Olsens La rebelda del sol (Rebellious Sun) his third collection, centres around journeys and collaborations. These have been a feature of Olsens life, leaving Aotearoa as a teenager to eventually live in Madrid, Spain.
Connections to and memories of Aotearoa are found often in his work. This collection is divided into three sections, with the poetry in both Spanish and English, and explores Olsens experiences during the III Antonio Machado Poetry Residence of Segovia and Soria.
These regions are the inspiration for the poetry in the first section. Olsens initiative linking poets with Machados work in Given Words, a competition for National Poetry Day in New Zealand, forms the second section of the collection, including the winning poems by New Zealand and Spanish authors. The third section returns to Olsens poetry, looking to Machado for inspiration, focusing on the sun of childhood.
