His poetry collections include One Night in Icarus Street, Stone Dog, Flower Red/Gos de pedra flor vermella, Walking on Bones and Being in Water. He is the author of two novels, The Colour of a Dog Running Away and Deep Hanging Out, and has also written a memoir, The Vagabond’s Breakfast. Published earlier this year, The Other Tiger is his most recent work, an anthology of translated poems from Latin America.
