Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the

Still Life with Defeats: Selected Poems of Tatiana Oroño is the
first English-language collection of Oroño’s poetry. Her poems
draw on motherhood, the loses in the Uruguayan dictatorship of the
1980s and, most of all, the natural world. She is a feminist and
her poems show a consciousness of her own body, of being a woman in
the pain and wonder of the everyday. But most of all, Oroño has a
special awareness of language as a body of its own.

Floating between memoir and philosophical inquiry, Mariella Nigro's
Memory Rewritten explores the ongoing impact of a childhood trauma
and the power of poetry to come to terms with loss, even finding
beauty in it. "Sister souls of mine, never look back!" admonished
Uruguayan modernist poet Delmira Agustini (1886-1914) in an elegy
that reminds us of the fate of the biblical Lot's wife as well as
the ill-fated Orpheus. But sometimes, looking back is necessary -
particularly when it is a sister who has been lost. Uruguayan poet
Mariella Nigro's Memory Rewritten is a meditation on the
insufficiency of language to provide a container for human emotion
and memory- and yet the reality that it is the only means we have.
"I'm writing an elegy / and so I'm arranging a dark bouquet of
useless words /with their eloquence of broken petals / and burning
in the rhetoric of embroidered leaves / the poem grows in black
water / of the fragile overflowing vase," Nigro states. The ghost
of a beloved sister dead in childhood haunts these poems, as does
the need for repetition, the compulsion to return to the sites of
loss and pain. However, rather than merely repeating memories,
Nigro elegantly transforms them, salvaging beauty from the
wreckage: "In a box I locked like Eleusian mysteries the poems we'd
shared the previous year under the January moon, along with the
colored ribbons and glass beads that we'd fought over, now mine
alone." In a poetics reminiscent of Helene Cixous's ecriture
feminine, Nigro transforms the visceral, bodily experiences of loss
and brings the reader along with her on a journey where grief does
not proceed in any orderly stages, where pain and healing coexist
within the mess of language, and out of them emerges a poem.
An artist, forced to paint swastikas on train cars for the Nazis
during the Holocaust, has become an unlikely vigilante in pre-Cold
War Europe. Alongside his army companion, Bruno, he hunts down the
criminals responsible for murdering his wife, his family, and his
people. SIMON SAYS is one part action-adventure, one part
crime-noir and all high stakes drama!
In Jesse Lee Kercheval’s sixth collection, I Want to Tell You,
her searching, incantatory poems speak directly and forcefully to
the reader in a voice that is by turns angry, elegiac, wry, or
witty but always sharply alive. Crossing through the bewildering
territory of grief, Kercheval argues with god and the universe
about the deaths of people she loves. She also writes movingly
about the complications of family life and love, the messy puzzle
of life itself.
A bilingual anthology, Fierce Voice / Voz feroz features Argentine
and Uruguayan women poets published after their countries' return
to democracy in the eighties. These twenty-six poets introduced
innovative, invigorating styles and established new directions in
literature, providing an essential addition to the development of
Latin American poetry. This anthology includes established poets as
well as emerging poets just gaining attention in their countries
and abroad. Fierce Voice / Voz feroz serves to showcase their work
and give an English-speaking readership the opportunity to
experience the breadth and power of this fierce talent.
