The Unfinished Song of Francisco Urondo: When Poetry is Not Enough
is a comprehensive, well-written, documented, and carefully
developed study of the literary work and life of Francisco Urondo,
an Argentine poet, intellectual, activist, cultural promoter,
revolutionary, and clandestine guerilla member who died in 1976
fighting for a cause in which he believed, against the oppressive
Argentine Military Junta. This methodical but never mechanistic
work shows how life events, cultural milieu, political movements,
and world circumstances interacted and impacted Urondo's
temperament to produce his poetic voice, his prose, and his
theatrical works. By studying the man, we get closer to his poetry.
With his poetry, the author makes a compelling case for
understanding the man. Francisco Urondo's life, work, and praxis
were varied, agonizing at times, and always marked by imperatives.
This book fills a significant lacuna in the scholarship on the work
of this worthy, yet neglected and under-studied, writer. Readers of
this book will come away with not only a deepened understanding of
the man and his writings but also of a key period in recent
Argentine political, social, and intellectual history.
