Synopsis
This short anthology takes a tour through the works of one of the foremost poets in the Latin American avant-garde. It includes examples of his first poems of reinvention of language up to the culminating examples of creationism, in which he turns to deconstruction so that something new and beautiful emerges. No other avant-garde practitioner was as innovative as Huidobro. ..".His name is tied to innovation in poetry, the audacity of language, experimentation..." --Jacobo Sefam, Letras libres
