In No One to Wake, Marilyn C. O’Leary shares "a bouquet of mourning" the death of her husband of 50 years. This audiobook of poetry is beyond beautiful. And one needn’t have been married for 50 years, or married at all, to feel softly wrapped in the understanding of how it feels to lose someone you love deeply. Both pain and transcendence are painted in her poems, plus the naturalness and magic of death itself.

Valle del río: Poemas y otras poesías: selección de versos inéditos, nacidos desde el dolor por la ausencia, en el fondo del alma. Demostrando cuánto amor puede tener el hombre hacia una mujer. Impreso los momentos juntos, la separación y el esperar nuevamente su retorno.

Este poemario es un mapa de «latidos». Pequeños instantes fraguados durante las madrugadas insomnes entre 2009 y 2010. Entre sus ángulos y esquinas se esconden de las miradas nuestros encuentros fugitivos. Se construyen nuestras voces silenciosas. Son el diálogo oculto de un amor pintado de imposible. Pero el amor es siempre posible. Primer volumen de una obra mayor, la selección de Latidos sumerge al oyentes en un pulso poético repleto de climas. Hondo, sensible y lleno de la lírica ternura propia del autor.

Este conjunto de poemas puede parecer inconexo o inconsistente. Y en buena medida lo es: No hay unidad temática ni un esquema fijo predeterminado. Ni siquiera una voz única, dado que reúnen casi una década de trabajo en esto de escribir versos. Disparejo: Visceral a ratos, prolijo y apegado a lo formal en otros momentos. Poesía que reniega de apellidos, de los "ismos" y de las taxonomías mañosas. Poesía a secas, con las manos vacías y sin cruzar los dedos.
