One of the greatest poets the world has today. Jos Saramago, Winner of the 1998 Nobel Prize in LiteratureThis bilingual edition makes Juan Gelmans hauntingly beautiful poetry collection, Notes / Notas, available to English-speaking audiences in its entirety for the first time.Originally published in 1979, Notas / Notes was composed in exile, following the 1976 military coup detat in Argentina. This period of state terrorism resulted in the disappearance of writers, comrades, and Gelmans own son.With a deep appreciation for Gelmans masterful linguistic play, translators Afsari and Tandeciarz channel the force of his poetic testimony against the real violence of dictatorship.Interweaving reflections on revolution, loss and memory, Argentinas poet laureate conjures forth a sense of hope in the wake of inconceivable suffering.
