Andean Journeys: A Bilingual Anthology of Contemporary Bolivian
Poetry is the fourth in a series of books that aspire to address a
dearth of information in the English-speaking world about South
American poetry of the past thirty years. The fourteen outstanding
poets included here represent a diversity of themes, styles, and
perspectives in one of South America's more marginalized nations.
All of them have published extensively, have been recognized
through literary awards and inclusion in national and international
anthologies, and continue writing and publishing today. For readers
unfamiliar with Bolivia, the introduction provides a brief
background of its geography, history, politics, economy, and
society. This is followed by an ample selection of representative
poems published previously in Spanish, with translations in English
on facing pages. The book concludes with a brief biographical
sketch of each poet and an extensive bibliography of primary and
secondary sources for readers wishing to pursue further reading or
research. Contemporary Uruguayan Poetry: A Bilingual Anthology;
Exotic Territory: A Bilingual Anthology of Contemporary Paraguayan
Poetry; and Volcanic Reflections: A Bilingual Anthology of
Contemporary Ecuadorian Poetry are companion volumes that offer
similar exposure to poetry that deserves to be better known in the
English-speaking world.
