About this product

Product Information

The Poetry and Poetics of Néstor Perlongher is the first full-length study in English of the highly regarded and influential Argentine poet and anthropologist and his pioneering body of work. Taking on some of the most dynamic and conflictive themes of modern-day Latin America, Perlongher's (1949-92) poetry explores dictatorship, national identity, exile, issues of gender and marginal sexualities, and modern-day esoteric religious ritual--all enmeshed within an anthropological outlook that challenged the very limits of the human being and attacked the most entrenched of contemporary taboos. This vital study analyzes and contextualizes his work while offering important tools for reading and understanding experimental verse and providing an innovative contribution for all those interested in Latin American literary and cultural studies.

Super impressed with this seller! They had the best price by far for this book! Both the cost of the book and the shipping fee was far better than average! The book came exactly as described, it was well packaged and quite a bit earlier than expected! The seller was polite and replied quickly to my messages. I’ll definitely make another purchase soon! Thank you to the seller! Be safe and keep up the great work!

WONDERFUL book! Better than described, in just like new condition [not just good]. Packaged very carefully, shipped very securely. Great seller, would buy from again in a heartbeat! No communication occurred, but I imagine it would have been as good as the rest of their customer service. Very happy with purchase, thank you very much!
