Muerte y amapolas en Alexandra Avenue es un libro que profundiza en el amplio abanico de sentimientos al que se enfrenta el emigrante. De la esperanza y el temor del recién llegado a su destino, a la soledad y desamparo del que sobrevive pero no consigue convivir en una tierra extraña.Armado con su pluma y una visión aguda y certera de la realidad circundante, el autor se sumerge en los barrios londinenses para sacar a la luz las paradojas del enfrentamiento intercultural en nuestro mundo cada vez más globalizado. Londres está ahí, más próximo que nunca, pero frente a él aún pervive el temor telúrico, la extrañeza ante lo nuevo e incomprensible.In 2013, motivated by an overwhelming work and political environment, Eduardo Moga, like so many other Spaniards, decides to emigrate. His destination: London; His goal: a new life; The result: Muerte y amapolas en Alexandra Avenue.Muerte y amapolas en Alexandra Avenue is a book that delves into the wide range of feelings the immigrant faces. From the hope and fear of the newcomer to his destiny, to the loneliness and helplessness of the survivor in a strange land.Armed with his pen and a sharp and accurate vision of the surrounding reality, the author immerses himself in London's districts to bring to light the paradoxes of intercultural confrontation in our increasingly globalized world. London is there, closer than ever, but in front of it there still survives the telluric fear, the strangeness before the new and incomprehensible.

    Edward V Bonner
    The very title of Edward V. Bonner's first volume of poetry, One Kiss (Ingram, 2015), suggests some ways in which the poems inside balance the universal with the particular.
