About This Book
The Astonished Universe is an uplifting and luminous book of poetry about consciousness. It is Red Hen Press' first bilingual edition in English and French.
"Helene Cardona tells us that the poems of *The Astonished Universe* were first conceived in English, then rendered into French. Yet for such a many-languaged mind as hers, the translations must have been there from the beginning. It seems, in any case, that each poem fully exists in two tongues at once, and this adds to the book s great charm and visionary quality." --Richard Wilbur
