In 2011 Cristian Aliaga, journalist, academic, and one of
Argentina's foremost contemporary poets, left Patagonia to take a
journey through the UK and continental Europe. Aliaga travelled to
places that exist and do not exist: former mining communities,
destroyed in the 1980s; identikit towns with their franchise high
streets; run-down suburban railway stations; and the open spaces of
the Yorkshire moors. He visited sites of conflict, like the Falls
Road in Belfast, places of poetic significance, including Dylan
Thomas's house and the centres of "Western" culture that those from
the edge of the world are told to admire. So long the object of
foreign gazes or described by others, this was the chance for
Patagonia to talk back to the centre. The stories that he tells
inspire and devastate, reflecting our cultures back to us from a
different perspective.
