Like the Rains Come. Selected Poems (1987-2006) is Mercedes Roffé's first book-length collection published in English. Including poems from one of her earliest books, The Lower Chamber (1983), which placed her among the most innovative Latin American poets of the 80s, as well as the series 'Mayan Definitions' — her internationally-acclaimed poems from La opera fantasma (2006) — Like the Rains Come introduces a broad spectrum of Roffé’s compelling and protean poetics to the English-language reader.
