Lotería

Sinopsis del Libro

The vision begins with a river. From this river, you can see a village, marine life, and ancestral rituals. It is here that you recognize origins, and a poison beginning to spread through paradise. Suddenly, a premonition: a wounded animal. The certainty of war cries. What you take with you is what you become, each movement a gamble, a lottery of life that transforms you until this moment, when uncertainty becomes an ally. Lotería: Nocturnal Sweepstakes is a collection of deeply evocative coming-of-age poems that take the reader on a voyage through the intimate experiences of displacement. Conjuring dreamlike visions of extravagant fruits and rivers animated by the power of divination, these poems follow the speaker from the lash of war’s arrival through an urgent escape and reinvention in a land that saves with maternal instinct but also smothers its children. In this bilingual collection, Colombian American poet Elizabeth Torres threads together the stories of family dynamics and the realities of migration with the archetypes of tarot and the traditional Lotería game, used for centuries as an object of divination and entertainment. Through these themes and images, the poems in Lotería narrate intimate moments in the lives and journeys of migrants, refugees, and all who have been forced into metamorphosis in order to reach the other side of the river.

Mis Humildes Poemas

This book taps into the heart and soul of anyone who has ever been in love. This includes both relationships that have succeeded and those that have soured. The poems are not only about love in relationships, but also love of nature, family, and life itself. The author tries to incorporate a variety of styles of poetry, such as sonnets and romances, among others. She modestly admits that she is by no means an expert in these classical styles. However, they are definitely among her favorites and she wants to share them with you.

La Muerte de los Versos

El poeta ensalza la belleza del mundo que le rodea a través de la poesía. La percepción es tan intensa que es incapaz de ignorarla, pues se graba en sus pupilas, cabalga a lomos del viento e incluso llega a posarse sobre su boca para obligarlo a darse cuenta de que necesita hablar de ella aunque en ese momento no encuentre las palabras adecuadas para componer ese verso que ha comenzado a gestarse en lo más profundo de su alma. Ser capaz de recrear una imagen, un sonido e incluso un sentimiento en el lector que sostiene un libro es un reto al que debe de enfrentarse cualquier escritor. La...

Erdera

Renovador extremo de la dicción hispánica, esforzado labrador de disonancias perfectas, minero capaz de hallar un gesto poético donde no había una veta visible, Deniz presiona la sintaxis de cada verso al extremo de lograr un brinco semántico que resignifica la palabra y que es un volver a empezar.
