Love - or its absence - is at the heart of everything we do, and yet it is often mishandled and misrepresented. In the words of José Olivarez: 'No disrespect to romantic love - but what about our friends?' Written in English and combined with a Spanish translation by poet David Ruano, 'Promises of Gold' explores the many forms love takes and how 'a promise made isn't always a promise kept,' as Olivarez grapples with the contradictions of the American Dream, laying bare the ways in which 'love is complicated by forces larger than our hearts.'
