Saxífraga

"The title is based on a famous verse by William Carlos Williams, 'Saxifraga é minha flor que fende / as rochas.' Roquette-Pinto, like the 'objectivists,' isolates the object from its original pedestrian context and unveils in its being-there, da-sein. Her voice also has precious baroque images that have a protean quality and continually change"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
