Overview
Después del éxito apabullante de los dos libros de Gloria Fuertes que Blackie Books publicó en 2017, nace una nueva colección de antologías dedicadas a la poeta.
Entre mi sangre y el llanto
hay un puente muy pequeño,
y por él no pasa nada,
lo que pasa es que te quiero.
Para Gloria Fuertes el amor era algo involuntario, como la poesía o el hipo. Curiosa, melancólica y mordaz, durante toda su vida amó y escribió con un espíritu de libertad y ternura insólito en la España de su época. Le rompieron el corazón mil veces, y mil veces lo recompuso para seguir queriendo.
Esta antología se centra en la faceta más íntima de Gloria a través de un centenar de poemas que navegan entre el amor y el desamor, llenos de camas, bocas, desvanes, lágrimas, ríos, cuerpos y noches en vela.
Un imaginario personal de una poeta única, isla ignorada, «Patrona de los Amores Prohibidos».
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
A new anthology of poems dedicated to love, one of Gloria Fuertes' major themes, has been released.
Following the success of the two books published by Blackie Books in 2017, this new collection focuses on the poet's most intimate side through a hundred poems that explore love and heartbreak.
The poems are filled with imagery of beds, mouths, attics, tears, rivers, bodies, and sleepless nights.
Gloria Fuertes viewed love as something involuntary, like poetry or hiccups, and throughout her life, she loved and wrote with a spirit of freedom and tenderness that was unusual in Spain at her time. Her heart was broken a thousand times, and a thousand times she mended it to keep loving.
This anthology presents a personal imaginary of a unique poet, an ignored island, and the "Patroness of Forbidden Loves."
