Reduced to Dust: Reducido a Polvo - Paperback

by Victoria M. Contreras (Translator), Luis Vicente De Aguinaga (Author)

Luis Vicente de Aguinaga, one of the most interesting poets of his time, received the prize Poesía Aguascalientes 2004 for this book of poems. With an impeccable and essential rhetoric, the poet transports us to the inner meaning of a polished poetry, where a play with meaning can be as profound as the reader chooses it to be. Through an intellectual and dense poetry, not lacking in emotion, Aguinaga shows us certain aspects that allow us to experience life closely and death in an unsuspected way. In an outstanding translation into English by Professor Victoria M. Contreras, the English reader will, for the first time, have access to one of the best books of Mexican contemporary poetry.
