Misael Osorio-Conde's debut collection some were just the Fragments / es qué fueron sólo unos Fragmentos center cultural, psychological, and linguistic border-crossings. Osorio-Conde's poems chart the experiences of his formative years where he learned to live in the shadows of exile as well as within a new language. Threading the needle between disclosure and acceptance, lyricism and narrative, and encapsulating new and inventive formal structures, the poems in some were just the Fragments / es qué fueron sólo unos Fragmentos attempt to make sense of Osorio-Conde's crossing while grieving an indefinitely deferred return to his native land. The poems presented in this bilingual collection are built for our contemporary moment, while laced with the timeless realities, hardships, and most importantly, the successes, loves, family, and camaraderie that define human experience.

Misael Osorio-Conde is a poet and translator currently living in the Midwest. He earned his MFA at the University of Notre Dame and is currently enrolled in the Program for Writers at University of Illinois, Chicago. In his work he attempts to capture the passage of language through the threshold of the body. He is interested in the traumas of crossing borders and how those traumas follow the language; interested in the marks those traumas leave inscribed in the psyche by their passage, and how memory helps us to reconstruct our humanity. Osorio-Conde's work has appeared in Protean Magazine, The Brooklyn Rail, The Texas Review, and elsewhere.
