About the Book

WHY THIS BOOK? This is the second book in which I share my response to the life of my grandfather, Carlos Mario Fraticelli, whom I never met. My first book was written in a chronological framework, starting with childhood memories of what I was told about him, followed by information obtained during different stages of my life, and concluding with a portrayal of how I currently view him. The most significant information for me was not historical facts, family stories or genealogical data. It was the discovery in 1977 that he was a poet. A decade ago, I was encouraged by my wife and children to share the story of my grandfather and his poetry beyond family and friendship networks, which I did. Five years ago I established a goal to publish two books, the first with forty four of his original Spanish Décima poems and the second with my English translations. I am making this effort because I have deep appreciation and respect for his talent, intelligence and skill as a poet, and I want him and his poetry to be recognized in the stories of the Puerto Rican diaspora. On a personal note, my lasting impression of him is of a man whose life experience is puzzling because of his family origin and identity, as well as unknown factors of his life before moving to Hawaii. I continue to hold him in high esteem for his reflections on a range of human experience, including his abiding love of homeland, nature and women, his poignant expressions of grief and sorrow, and his call for Puerto Ricans to be engaged in the political process of their society. ¿POR QUÉ ESTE LIBRO? Este es el segundo libro en el que comparto mi respuesta a la vida de mi abuelo, Carlos Mario Fraticelli, a quien nunca conocí. Mi primer libro fue escrito en un marco cronológico, comenzando con recuerdos de la infancia de lo que me contaron sobre él, seguido de información obtenida durante diferentes etapas de mi vida, y concluyendo con una descripción de cómo lo veo actualmente. La información más significativa para mí no fue hechos históricos, historias familiares o datos genealógicos. Fue el descubrimiento en 1977 que él era un poeta. Hace una década, mi esposa y mis hijos me alentaron a compartir la historia de mi abuelo y su poesía más allá de las redes familiares y de amistad, lo cual hice. Hace cinco años establecí el objetivo de publicar dos libros, el primero con cuarenta y cuatro de sus poemas originales de Décima en español y el segundo con mis traducciones al inglés. Estoy haciendo este esfuerzo porque tengo un profundo aprecio y respeto por su talento, inteligencia y habilidad como poeta, y quiero que él y su poesía sean reconocidos en las historias de la diáspora puertorriqueña. En una nota personal, mi impresión duradera de él es la de un hombre cuya experiencia de vida es desconcertante debido a su origen e identidad familiar, así como a factores desconocidos de su vida antes de mudarse a Hawaii. Sigo teniendo en alta estima sus reflexiones sobre una amplia gama de experiencias humanas, que incluyen su amor permanente por la patria, la naturaleza y las mujeres, sus conmovedoras expresiones de pena y dolor y su llamado a que los puertorriqueños participen en el proceso político de su sociedad.
