Hermit Poetry E054 - "Kundiman" by Neil Aitken

Neil Aitken reads "Kundiman" from his first book, The Lost Country of Sight (Anhinga 2008). More about Kundiman Kundiman is a national nonprofit organization dedicated to nurturing generations of writers and readers of Asian American literature. http://www.kundiman.org/ What does Kundiman mean "Kundiman is the classic form of Filipino love song—or so it seemed to colonialist forces in the Philippines. In fact, in Kundiman, the singer who expresses undying love for his beloved is actually singing for love of country. As an organization dedicated to providing a nurturing space for Asian American writers, we find in this name inspiration to create and support artistic expression. Kundiman is pronounced with the emphasis on the second syllable." The Hermit Poetry Series features author Neil Aitken reading the work of contemporary poets, as well as his own work and classic poems from world literature. New episodes are available every Tuesday, Thursday, and Sunday.
