About the Book
From the Foreword by Frank H. Wu, President of Queens College, CUNY:
“Nicos Alexiou is a man of Queens, renowned as the World’s Borough… His verse speaks of the
experience of those who remember—and are compelled to do so—a land they have left behind,
yet which influenced them with the indelible impression of their heritage, and those who explore
the new locale that they have settled, engaging with strangers on the streets.”
