Mark Weiss Author, Editor & Translator

Mark Weiss builds complex mosaics out of broken fragments of a world both familiar and surprising. "Put two things next to each other," he has written, "and a third thing happens." As Luck Would Have It is his tenth book and his fourth major collection. He has also edited anthologies of Mexican and Cuban poetry and translated several books of poems from Spanish. His study overlooks Manhattan's only forest.
