The Xul Reader: An Anthology of Arentine Poetry 1980-1996

By: Grosman, Ernesto Livon

Book Overview

In the beginning of the 1980's and during the dictatorship that started in Argentina in 1976 and ended in 1983- a small poetry magazine, XUL, published its first issue. Since then, and until the present, the magazine has called for a discussion of poetry and writing in which politics and formal experimentation were no longer conceived as mutually exclusive. We have now, for the first time, a bilingual anthology that presents us with the unmapped territory of Argentina's poetry of the last 16 years, a retrospective view as much as a way of knowing what to expect in the coming years.
