Gómez-Castellano, Irene 33. Swimming
$14.95Swimming leads us through the distinct phases of a woman’s life, raising us with her to the wave’s crest, only to plunge us to the depths of solitude. The demands society places on women, the roles they are expected to play, are juxtaposed with those of the poet, who – like trading an iridescent tail for feet and a pair of high heels – must fit her...

$14.95The contemporary Colombian poets that we present in this anthology write originally and from a variety of perspectives about poetry itself.

García Montero, Luis 30. Selected Poems
$14.95The need to return poetry to the people has been addressed at different moments with very uneven success. Since the 1980’s the poetry of Luis García Montero has become the standard for an entire generation of Spanish language poets.

Aveiga del Pino, María 29. Personal Anthology
$14.95In Personal Anthology, Aveiga del Pino probes with potent fervor the deep mysteries of our identities upon which poetry is constructed. It is from these profound investigations that her poetry emerges, marked by the unconscious forces that define this genre. Among these mysteries are memory and the unification of the human body, thought, and desire. With...

Lima, Alex 28. Mesa de Contentos
$14.95In Mesa de contentos, two languages that represent two different cultures, which in themselves emit two powerful vibrations, sitdown, dialogue, enrich and nourish each other. Spanish recovers what is most genuine from its oral tradition and English allowsitself to be encroached upon by the twists and turns of this primary language whose presence is...

Calderón, Mario 27. Reading Our Surroundings
$14.95Mario Calderón’s poems are intensely original because they enhance their meaning by virtue of etymology, or the symbolic dimension of words. Beneath these poems lies a hypothesis about the structure of what we call “reality.” Calderón exposes the idea that, by way of the symbolic decipherment of any person’s surroundings, it is possible to know data about...

Martínez Pérsico, Marisa 26. The Sky Between Parentheses
$14.95Marisa Martínez Pérsico’s voice establishes its own border between lucidity and dreams, between the exterior world and intimacy. The body tells and sings its own story, because feeling skin is a similar experience to crossing a city or touching an idea with your hands. The moment of this poetry occurs in the place of instinct and meditation, of knowing...

Rollón, Miguel 25. Detroit Doesn't Love Us Anymore
$14.95Miguel Rollón’s voice speaks to those who feel deeply, who will be able to find reflection and relief at the heart of this collection. In this book, no night is like the next one: children crisscross the border between youth and adulthood, while adults realize that they were never as old as they are today. True poetry cures us, saves us, and brings us...

Aldazábal, Carlos J. 21. Stone to the Chest
$14.95A Stone to the Chest, winner of the Premio Alhambra de Poesía Americana, weaves together tango, soccer, and contemporary Argentine slang with echoes of Vallejo, Manrique, Gonzalo Rojas, and Cortázar. In this collection, stones are earth, stars, mountains, and water-smoothed pebbles. They are those surfaces where we draw petroglyphs; the material we use to...

Cabrera Martos, José 20. Manumission
$14.95Manumission means freeing a slave, but in this work we have the consciousness that, in reality, we all continue to share the fate of freed slaves in the twenty-first century, dependent on superior forces that control us, dominate us and mark our paths. Remedios Sánchez...

Rioseco, Marcelo 19. 2323 Stratford Ave.
$14.95Without shunning toponyms, a poetic persona speaks to us from a place called Cincinnati (or also Norman-Oklahoma), very far from Chile, to tell us, however, that sometimes he becomes Chilean, that the days become Sundays or that he feels in Spanish but lives in English. The language of these poems is one of dislocations, of displacements and hybridity. It...

Díaz-Granados, Federico 15. Roadhouse
$14.95I have always loved fútbol. I have wept watching movies like the War of the Galaxies or Cinema Paradiso. I have sung songs by Calamaro, Jim Morrison or Lennon out of tune, and nevertheless I live in fear every day, and that’s why I sleep with the light on at night. Because of those insignificant details, those small matters that have always amazed me and...

Méndez, Roxana 14. The Sky Through the Window
$14.95From the first time that I read the poems of Roxana Méndez I knew that I was in the presence of an excellent poet. In my opinión, she is one of the most important young voices in our Central America. She knows her craft, and each time that she makes use of it, it becomes more a part of her. This prize that she has been awarded in Spain (I Premio Alhambra...

Prado, Benjamín 13. Shelter From the Storm
$14.95SHELTER FROM THE STORM All of Benjamín Prado’s poems are a step forward and, above all, a step within; they are combative, moving, accessible; they touch a nerve that touches all of us, and they are unanimously confessional because they are at the same time his autobiography and our own. And there is –besides– their tone and their rhythm and their beat...
