Ramos generales, by Márgara Averbach, brings together recent poems alongside previously unpublished works written over the years. In this book, the author gathers the recurring themes of her poetry as if arranging jars on the familiar shelves of her grandparents’ grocery store.
As poet Laura Wittner writes: “In Ramos generales, no one is denied a voice. Everyone and everything has a voice. The past, childhood, the present, grandchildren; air, water, the living and the dead. And it is this bouquet, so to speak, of voices that unfolds throughout the poems in this book.”
Everything speaks and converses in this first publication by Goma Editora. A gift to contemporary Argentine poetry.
