*One Impossible Step is the first book-length collection of Fontela's poems in English. This collection includes selections from Fontela's five full-length collections, translations of a pointed poetic statement, fascinating excerpts from multiple interviews, a translator's note, and an afterword by Ricardo Domenek that help to situate Fontela and her poetry alongside, and in contrast to, the conservative, male-dominated Brazilian literary context of her time. *Author was born to a Brazilian working class family with semi-literate parents and became revered as one of Brazil's most celebrated poets, winning Prémio Jabuti, one of Brazil's most prestigious literary awards, and publishing over 300 poems spread over five books. *Translator is a talented self-taught translator of Lusophone poetry, who shares Fontela's working-class background and distrust/disinterest in traditional academic and publishing institutions. Daniels has been invested in DIY and small-press publishing for decades, and published chapbooks and full-length books, of his translations and friends' writing, often hand-bound, through his small press, Berkeley Neo Baroque.
