An introduction to the work of thirty-six poets from Cuba writing in the second half of the twentieth-century, including Heberto Padilla, Nancy Morej¢n, and V¡ctor Rodr¡guez N£¤ez. The oldest poet here, Fina Garc¡a-Marruz, was born in 1923; the youngest, Damaris Calder¢n, in 1967. It's an extraordinary and heady mix, combining African and Spanish influences, realism and surrealism, colloquialism and baroque, experiment and commitment, a lucid and moving introduction to a collective poetic subject that defies all kinds of social oppression.
