Produktbeschreibung
Published posthumously in Havana, the Obra Poetica de Emilio Ballagas was out of print for fifty-seven years. It is the most comprehensive collection of the works of one of Cuba's -and Latin America's- greatest poets, including scattered verse not published in book form during the author's life. Since then, only a few spurious collections of Ballagas' poetry have been published both in the island and abroad. This edition is not only true to the original Obra Poetica but the only one authorized by the late poet's estate. The back cover features a never before published photo of Ballagas in Paris, during the 30s. The preface and selection are the work of the poet's son, Manuel Ballagas.
Autorenporträt
Manuel Ballagas was born in Cuba to a reknowned literary family. He published his first work of fiction at age 15, in Casa de Las Américas magazine, a literary publication with a large Latin American following. By 1965, his first book of fiction was going to print, when Fidel Castro himself had the publishing house closed. Since 1980, Ballagas has been living in the United States, where he worked as an editor in The Wall Street Journal, The Miami Herald and The Tampa Tribune. Between 2000 and 2003 he was an editorial consultant for the Spanish language edition of Foreign Affairs magazine. He's the author of two novels, two book of short stories and a memoir.
