About the author

César Abraham Vallejo Mendoza was a Peruvian poet. Although he published only three books of poetry during his lifetime, he is considered one of the great poetic innovators of the 20th century. Always a step ahead of the literary currents, each of his books was distinct from the others and, in it's own sense, revolutionary. Clayton Eshleman and José Rubia Barcia's translation of "The Complete Posthumous Poetry of César Vallejo" won the National Book Award for translation in 1979.

Reviews

[El Diletante Errante · Rating 4 out of 5]

Poeta por excelencia, domador del verso, déspota del lenguaje, tirano de la sintaxis, el Michelangelo que logró pintar de la forma mas hermosa y cruda la tristeza y sus causantes; el desamor, la angustia, la miseria, la relación hombre-dios, los lazos familiares, la guerra, la ausencia, en fin, todos los componentes del coloso metafisico que llamamos drama humano, pero que ademas reivindica la identidad Inca de su país natal.

Una poesia densa, que invita a la relectura, que crea atmósferas, visceral, cavernaria, que resuena en lo mas ondo del ser. Imposible no sentir su poesia.
