Reviews
This superbly edited anthology breaks new ground. North Americans and Anglophones with diverse interests will come to this trove of new writing with gratitude. Not only have we lacked access to this era of Uruguayan poetry, but the poems themselves are brilliant–and the translations crisp and sure-footed.–Peter Thompson, translator of Nabile Farès's Escuchando tu historia
