Setting the Stage for
Guadalajara 2017
The largest Spanish-language book fair
expects another banner year
By Ada Bardales
T
he Guadalajara International
Book Fair (FIL) will run from
November 25 to December 3
this year, with professional
dates set for November
2729. FIL is the largest and
most important annual book fair in the
Spanish-language book industry, estab-
lished 31 years ago and still organized by
the University of Guadalajara. In addi-
tion to attracting book professionals
from all over the world, FIL is open to
the general public.
This year, FIL expects to host more than
2,000 publishers from 45
countries, including 170
publishers and 420 book
professionals from the U.S.
Authors and editors who
will participate in different
activities throughout the fair, include Paul
Auster (U.S.), Carlos Yushimito (Peru), and
Azar Nafisi (Iran). Hundreds of writers
representing 29 languages [will] go to the
fair, says general director Marisol Schulz.
There are multiple activities not just for
adults but also for readers in training, she
says in reference to FIL Nios (FIL Kids).
The fairs opening ceremony, on
November 25, will include the presenta-
tion of FILs Literary Award in Romance
Languages, which this year goes to writer
and journalist Emmanuel Carrre, for his
versatile, broad, and transversal body of
work that has earned him vast and enthu-
siastic international distinction.
One new element for the 2017 fair is its
4 P U B L I S H E R S W E E K LY N O V E M B E R 6 , 2 0 1 7
Books in Spanish
Comics and Graphic Novels Hall, which
Schulz describes as a space where readers
of comic strips can meet different artists
and find materials from different
publishers.
Below is a closer look at some of the
fairs major components.
FIL Nios
To attract more families to FIL Nios,
organizers have scheduled almost 1,500
different sessions that promote reading
and creative writing, as well as sponta-
neous workshops, where children can
join in creative exchanges with authors.
Furthermore, 35 artistic companies from
eight countries will offer more than 80
performances for theater, dance, and
music, as well as clowns acts, marionette
shows, and book presentations.
ALA Librarians
As in past years, FIL and the American
Library Association are working together
to attract more U.S. librarianswho
often make most of their annual book
acquisitions at the fair. To date, 172
librarians from 27 states are expected to
participate. On November 26 a free gala
dinner for ALA members, sponsored by
publishers and distributors (and
Publishers Weekly), will take place at La
Tequila. Of particular interest every year
is the annual International Colloquium
for Librarians, held November 2729,
and the International Publishers and
Book Professionals Forum, November
2829. Both events are held in Spanish.
Guest of Honor
Madrid is this years guest of honor, and
90 authors from Spains capital will par-
ticipate in a literary program that will
pay tribute to the literature of the region,
with various shows, films, and visual arts
presentations, as well as about 50 work-
shops or forums scheduled.
Along with FIL, Madrid has prepared
a program that includes established
authors in contemporary literature, as
well as new voices, and Mexican readers
will be able to hear them
speak at different events.
Among the many activities
planned for Madrid as
guest of honor are nine
concerts, where Spanish
artists will perform along with Mexican
talents. Madrid will also bring two major
exhibitions to the Instituto Cultural
Cabaas (Cabaas Cultural Institute) and
a retrospective of Elena Asins at the
Museo de las Artes de la Universidad de
Guadalajara (Guadalajara University Art
Museum).
Madrids presence will be [felt] all
over the city, Schulz says. She adds that
she is thrilled by the new voices and new
trends at this years events, as well as the
thousands of children and guests that
will attend the fair. For nine days, she
said, Guadalajara becomes the pub-
lishing and cultural capital of the world
in Spanish.

language titles publishers had hoped for did not materialize, most
major houses cut back.
However, with continued demographic changes, as well as ral-
lying cries for more diverse books for children, Cardillo has again
observed increased output of Spanish books from small and large
publishers alike. The focus of the small publishers, as always, was
to create more Spanish content, that is, books about figures in
Spanish history, historical events in Spanish-language countries,
holidays, etc., and large publishers have followed suit. That shift
has resulted in Live Oak licensing more books for audio about
people like Cesar Chavez, about holidays like Cinco de Mayo and
the Day of the Dead, and about musical celebrities like salsa singer
Celia Cruz, or musician and composer Esquivel (Esquivel! Space-Age
Sound Artist by Susan Wood is due from Live Oak in 2018 in both
Spanish and English).
Similar to Live Oak, Scholastics Weston Woods division pro-
duces three to four Spanish titles per year, a mix of new and classic
picture books, representing roughly 10% of Weston Woodss total
audiobook list, according to Linda Lee, v-p and president of Weston

Woods Studios and Scholastic Audio. The company has produced
at least one title in Spanish each year since the early 90s, when the
demand was primarily from the school and library market, Lee
says. Then, and now, each Weston Woods audio title is produced
as a standalone recording and also in a readalong format. Popular
titles in the catalogue include Un Pato en Bicicleta (Duck on a Bike)
by David Shannon; Crisantemo (Chrysanthemum) by Kevin Henkes;
Clic, Clac, Muu: Vacas escritoras (Click, Clack, Moo: Cows That Type)
by Doreen Cronin, illus. by Betsy Lewin; and El conejito Knuffle: Un
cuento aleccionador (Knuffle Bunny: A Cautionary Tale) by Mo Willems.
As a result of a pronounced increase in demand over the past
year, Lee says Weston Woods has recently expanded our distri-
bution as digital downloads to the consumer market. Scholastic
Audio will also be producing its first middle grade Spanish-
language audio title in summer 2018, with plans to release
more in upcoming seasons.
A number of publishers partner with Deyan Audio, and the
companys Spanish producer Jorge Reyes, for Spanish audiobook
production, whether it be for start-to-finish projects, or indi-
vidual aspects, like quality control. Reyes says that in his 10
8 P U B L I S H E R S W E E K LY N O V E M B E R 6 , 2 0 1 7
years in the industry, he has seen Spanish audio grow in the
mid-2000s followed by a brief lull, but that since 2012, Its
been increasing, maybe doubling, every year. At this point were
doing roughly 3040 books a year at Deyan.
The growth in the number of titles is also coupled with an
increase in the number of clients, according to Reyes, with more
publishers coming on board, not just the same few publishers
increasing their title output. And he points to a trend within
all that growth. We were doing mostly childrens books early
on, he says, but now were doing a lot of books for adults,
many longer eight-hour or 10-hour recordings. He cites litera-
ture, bestsellers, and Nobel and Pulitzer Prize winners as exam-
ples of much of his recording work now.
In English, audio publishers are doing backlist titles or new
releases, because all the classics have been done, Reyes says.
But in Spanish, they are not done yet. He points to such
authors as Junot Daz, Mario Vargas Llosa, and Isabel Allende.
Their great books are not produced on audio yet in Spanish. I
just finished working on eight books from the Isabel Allende
catalogue [for Penguin Random House
LILY OEI
Grupo Editorial, S.A.U].
Reyes considers PRH, with a digital
department based in Barcelona, to be a
pioneer in pushing audiobooks in Spanish
over the past five years or so. He describes
how PRH and other publishers are trying
to broaden their reach in this area.
Business books and motivational books
have been around in Spanish for a while,
but to go to the masses, audio publishers
need to build a catalogue with a good solid
base of these big titles.
The Accent Is on Casting
With the demand for, and the supply of, audiobooks in Spanish
rising, audiobook casting is crucially important because there are
different Spanish-language accents to consider for a diverse lis-
tening audience. If youre recording audiobooks in English, you
already have lots of professional narrators where thats their job,
Reyes says. But in Spanish, were not quite there yet, because there
is not enough material. He adds, Im personally building a pool
of talent from different countriesselecting actors from theater,
dubbing, and voiceover work. Lee at Scholastic is optimistic about
casting options. Happily, the pool of Spanish-language narrators
has greatly increased, she says. Its an exciting time.
Pairing a narrator with a project depends on the origin of the
language of the text to be recorded, according to Reyes. If the
text is a translation, there are two options. If it was translated
in Spain, with Castillian Spanish, we get Castillian actors, says
Reyes. If the book was translated to Latin-American accents,
we get what we call neutral Spanish, and use actors with
Mexican, Colombian, or Guatemalan accents.
If a book is originally written in Spanish, the story itself often
 Books in Spanish

dictates narrator selection. Reyes cited the case of Chilean author

Isabel Allende. Not all her books are based in Chile, he notes.
If the book is set in Venezuela we use a Venezuelan accent, and
if its set in [the U.S.], we use the neutral accent. And in a case
like The Feast of the Goat by Peruvian author Mario Vargas Llosa,
which is set in the Dominican Republic and contains copious
slang, the casting is a mix. We tried to have the narration as
neutral as possible, says Reyes, but when the actor was in char-
acter, performing dialogue, we encouraged them to go all out

Reaching Listeners
Cleveland-based OverDrive is a key distributor to bringing
Spanish-language audio to a broader audience. OverDrives dig-
ital distribution platform is in a combined 38,000 public
libraries, schools, as well as some universities and corporations
worldwide, according to OverDrives director of brand and mar-
keting communication, David Burleigh. From a corporate
standpoint, strategically one of the things we are investing in is
Spanish language, he says. As a special feature, libraries using
OverDrive can create a room for their own digital Spanish
content, similar to a landing page within the platform, where 9781945540769 9781945540783
librarians can highlight various titles. $13.95 $13.95
Elissa Miller, digital collection adviser for the company,
notes that when it comes to finding Spanish-language con-
tent to offer via OverDrive, she has seen a steady and very
significant increase in the availability of Spanish audio-
books. The uptick is multifaceted, with more titles being
produced, and more producers in the market. Much of the
growth is coming from Spanish producers and distributors,
but also in the form of an expansion of high-quality, high-
interest titles from publishers like Penguin Random House
and HarperCollins, and titles from smaller, independent pub- 9781945540707 9781947783249

PRHGE Has a New Religious Imprint
By Ada Bardales
P
enguin Random House Grupo Editorials distribu-
tion and editorial office in Miami is launching
Origen (Origin), a new religious imprint for Spanish-
language books. The imprint will feature titles on
self-help, relationships, and a Christian-based lifestyle, and
will include Bibles, as well as titles for children and young
adults under the Origen Kids label.
For many years, we have observed that a large number of
Spanish-speaking readers are interested in religious books,
says Silvia Matute, president of PRHGE USA. It just made
sense for PRHGE to create a reli-
gious book imprint and start
catering to the religious [Spanish-
language] reader.
The new imprint will publish
approximately 20 titles per year.
Most will be translations of nonfic-
tion works that promote Christian
values, with about 20% of the list
Shetterlys Talentos Ocultas (Hidden Figures) as titles that
have seen great traction. Larry Downs, v-p and pub-
lisher for HCCPs Spanish publishing program, says:
Audio is an extension of our desire to provide options
for how and when our readers wish to consume our
authors content. As we continue to grow our physical
footprint and market share in Spanish, we anticipate
that our audio listener consumption will continue to
grow.
Miller notes that in addition to volume, the
breadth of whats being produced is getting better
all the time. That includes more titles from the U.S.
bestseller lists in translation, as well as titles from the bestseller
lists in Spain and Latin America. Whats considered more classic
Spanish literature and the works of very well-known authors are
very appealing to library users, she says. Im also seeing a lot of
media tie-ins, but not in the traditional sense, rather books by
authors known and featured in Spanish-language media in the
U.S. or Mexico, whether its TV, radio, or print. As examples,
she mentions books and audiobooks by radio personalities in Los
Angeles, or TV commentators from the U.S. Spanish-language
TV network Univision. Those titles are having a lot of success
in the U.S. market.
For younger listeners, Miller says that popular novels are a draw
for teens, and anything classicfolktales, popular picture
books, bilingual picture booksappeals in the childrens cate-
gory. Were trying to build a quality collection we can really

being original works by prominent Hispanics, such as Pope
Francis and evangelical pastor Samuel Rodriguez. The first
four titles were released in October, including Pope Franciss
book, Quin soy yo para juzgar? (Who Am I to Judge?).
Origens childrens books, both fiction and nonfiction, will
include beautiful illustrations and affordable hardbound
covers, according to Matute.
Sister companies in Mexico, Colombia, and the rest of
Latin America will publish additional titles that will be dis-
tributed as part of the Origen list. Although each country
also develops [its list with] its own
local authors, the religious market
remains quite similar throughout the
continent, Matute says.
Origens new editorial list will
count on the distribution arm of
PRHGE in the United States to
reach markets across the country, as
well as in Latin America.
stand by and that is of interest to a really broad range
of public and school libraries.
Reyes believes the Spanish audio distribution
scene is about to change in interesting ways. Storytel,
a Swedish audiobook and e-book subscription ser-
vice and app company, is on the move, aiming to
capitalize in non-English-speaking markets where
its much-larger competitor, Audible, does not
operate. In the past year, Storytel has acquired
esteemed Swedish publishing house Norstedts
(original publisher of Stieg Larsson) and the Danish
e-book and audio streaming service Mofibo, among
other companies. Plans for Storytels expansion into India,
Russia, Spain, and U.A.E. were announced in June.
Looking to the future, Reyes observes: You cant compare the
two [audio] markets; the English market is so mature, and has
dedicated listeners who are addicted to audio and just go from one
title to the next. You have to create Spanish listeners, and you create
those listeners by creating good content. He recently emphasized
this point about quality to a publisher planning its first Spanish
audiobook, saying: For a lot of people who will buy your audio-
book, it will be the first audiobook that they listen to in Spanish.
If its a bad experience, theyre gone.
Burleigh adds another point from the distribution side: Weve
learned over the years that it really boils down to, do you have the
right content and is it easy to get to? People will use the service or
not based on those simple questions.

A Passion for Words
Vintage Espaols
publishing director
hunts for more original
works in Spanish by
Hispanic-American
writers
By Ada Bardales
T
his past summer, publishing
veteran Cristbal Pera was
named publishing director for
Vintage Espaol, taking over
from Jaime de Pablos, who left
after almost a decade with the
imprint. Pera has a background in many
aspects of Spanish-language publishing.
After earning his Ph.D. in Latin-
American literature from the University of
Texas at Austin, where he later taught, Pera
started his publishing career at Galaxia
Gutenberg in the 1990s and later moved
to Random House Mondadori in Spain. In
2006, he was hired as editorial director of
Random House Mondadori Mexico, where
he edited works by Gabriel Garca Mrquez,
Andrs Oppenheimer, and Laura Esquivel.
Two years ago, he moved to New York to
help launch the Wylie Agency Espaa,
where he added more than 20 Latin-
American authors to the roster.
It was a project that excited me very
much, he says of his time at Wylie. It was
an incredible experience to be on the other
side of the editorial world, to have an
agents point of view, to be closer to authors
and their needs. Pera says he learned a lot
at Wylie, but when the opportunity to
head Vintage Espaol arose, he felt he had
to take it. He says this new endeavor is a
Books in Spanish
Cristbal Pera
challenge: Its about deciphering the
enigma of Spanish-language publishing in
the United States.
About his plans for Vintage Espaols
lineup, Pera says, I would like to publish
more books specifically for the Latino audi-
ence in this country. Topics will range
from literary and commercial fiction to
self-help, YA, and books by high-profile
authors, such as those previously published
by Penguins Celebra, which stopped
acquiring new titles in the fall of 2016.
Pera believes 2018 will be a year of
transition, with only eight to 10 titles
scheduled so far, and hopes that by 2019
he will debut his ideal [editorial] list.
He would like to publish 2025 books in
Spanish, and he hopes in English as well.
The greatest challenge [about pub-
lishing for U.S. Hispanics] is that there
is no uniform audience, Pera says,
adding that Spanish readers in the U.S.
hail from anywhere in Latin America,
and that there are socioeconomic differ-
ences to take into account as well. While
the numbers reveal how much the
Spanish-speaking population in the U.S.
continues to grow, he thinks a greater
challenge is making the books widely
available, because many Spanish-
language readers do not shop at Barnes &
W W W . P U B L I S H E R S W E E K LY. C O M
Noble, for example. He acknowledges,
however, that demand must be created
before outlets stock more Spanish-
language titles.
Pera notes the same difficult task U.S.
editors of Spanish-language books have
faced in the pastfinding original works
in Spanish by Hispanic-American
writers. There are many great literary
agents in Spain, such as Antonia
Kerrigan, Casanovas & Lynch, and
Raquel de la Concha, for example, but
there is still a large void in the U.S., one
that the Wylie Agency Espaa and
Indent Literary Agency are trying to fill.
Its true, he says, that [U.S. literary
agents] are paying more attention to Latin-
American authors, such as Alejandro
Zambra, Valeria Luiselli, and Mariana
Enrquez, but that only results in the pub-
lication of English translations. Pera is
grateful for the response Spanish-language
authors garner, citing all the independent
and nonprofit publishers that have pub-
lished new or contemporary writers in
English, but he hopes this piques the
interest for big U.S. publishers to also
publish their works in Spanish.
All I want is to edit works in Spanish
by high-quality writers who are also pub-
lished in English, so that they reach readers
in both languages. Even if Im not the one
publishing them in English, I dont care,
he says. Thats the evidence of the power
of literature beyond language.
Soon after his move back to PRH,
Pera was asked to join the board of trans-
lation magazine Words Without Borders. It
makes me hopeful because working on
translations is like being on the bridge
between two cultures, he says. Pera
worked closely with the magazines
editor, Eric Becker, on the September
2017 issue on Colombian literature. I
am happy to be on that bridge with trans-
lators, with good content, good quality
whichever language it may be.

Searching for
Summer in Winter
Isabel Allende discusses writing her latest novel
By Carlos Rodrguez Martorell

I
sabel Allende has written 22 novels
that have sold more than 65 million
copies worldwide. Her latest, Ms
all del invierno, was released by
Vintage Espaol in June and by
Atria in English as In the Midst of
Winter on October 31.
The Chilean author notes in the books
acknowledgements that the idea for this
novel originated during a Christmas con-
versation in Brooklyn two years ago.
Relatives and friends chimed in on what
she should write about on January 8, the
date on which she traditionally begins
writing her books. That is not the way
she usually operates, Allende, 75, tells
PW. People are always suggesting
things, but that doesnt mean Im going
to write them. You use six out of 100
things you hear. However, she adds,
Im always open to what people have to
say. Thats where all my material comes
from. It has happened to me in a restau-
rant, for example, that I suddenly catch
something that is being said at another
table nearby, and I write it down on a
napkin, thinking, I may use this
someday. My ear is always ready, and
sometimes it works. It really works!
An energetic mix of romantic adventure,
crime story, and sober expos on political
violence in Latin America, Ms all del
invierno revolves around the unlikely
pairing of three disparate characters hud-
dling in a Brooklyn brownstone during a
harsh blizzard: Luca
Maraz, 62, a Chilean aca-
demic and cancer sur-
vivor who recently had a
messy divorce; her boss,
Richard Bowmaster, 60, a
human rights scholar who
lives above her and has
been battling alcoholism
and depression for years; and
Evelyn Ortega, a young, shy
undocumented immigrant
who has moved into the
brownstone.
Things are set in motion when Evelyn
discovers a dead body in the trunk of the
car shes borrowed from her employer.
The three set out to dispose of the body
and save Evelyn from having legal trou-
bles that could result in her deportation.
Their three-day journey in the blizzard
uncovers a human-trafficking ringand
rekindles the hearts of Luca and Richard.
Allende says the first thing the family
meeting decided about the novel was to
include the old Brooklyn house where
they were staying, which had a mafia-
related backstory. Her daughter-in-law,
who works in Allendes foundation that
has assisted many Central American
child migrants, suggested the character
of Evelyn. That was before Trump
[became the Republican nominee], the
2014 Medal of Freedom winner says.
In writing about Evelyn, who escaped
her native Guatemala after being raped and
losing a brother to gang violence, Allende
says she had one specific person in mind,
but could not write her whole story.
Sometimes you cant explain the worse
things because [readers] dont believe
them. A novel must be credible, and real
life is often incredible, she says. The sheer
brutality, the cruelty, the horror that goes
on with those kids, I couldnt go into that.
The character of Luca offers a different
view of the experience of Latin Americans
in the U.S., as she is a professional
teaching in New York. However, like
Evelyn, Luca also carries the memory of
her countrys upheavals, as she was forced
to flee Chile in the aftermath of the 1973
military coup and had a disappeared
brother. Allende, who is a close cousin of
President Salvador Allende, who was
overthrown and died during the coup,

has written about that day, starting with
her groundbreaking debut La casa de los
espritus (The House of the Spirits, 1982).
In Allendes new book, a chilling
detail stands out: Chilean television
broadcast cartoons all day. You have to
have lived through it to remember the

me is this feeling of never having loved
brutal contrast between how they
detained people on the street, how they
burned books in bonfires, took people
away in trucks, the national stadium was
turned into a concentration and torture
camp... and alongside that you had the
cartoons on TV, Allende says.
W W W . P U B L I S H E R S W E E K LY. C O M
The abundance of tragic events in the
novel is balanced with truly humorous
momentsfor example, the three char-
acters initially bond over a marijuana
cookie. The author points out that this is
not a literary device. Thats just how life
is, she says. Those are not tricks to
lighten the readers burden. I feel that
when I tell a story, I tell it the way life
happens. And life happens with tragedy
and humor. Everything has its comedic
part.
Allende says she has toyed with the idea
of romance in old age for a long time, as
she did with her previous novel, El amante
japons (The Japanese Lover). However,
when she tried to put her ideas on paper,
nothing seemed to work. That is until Jan.
22, 2016, when a blizzard of historic pro-
portions paralyzed the city. In one of
those chances in which the universe sends
you messages, she recalls coming upon
an Albert Camus quote: In the midst of
winter, I found there was, within me, an
invincible summer.
Thats what I needed, she says,
seeing the storm as a metaphor for what
is going on in the characters lives. They
are going through a long winter in their
lives, but all of us have within us the pos-
sibility of an invincible summer. So were
going to produce a situation in which
they will have to open their hearts, run
risks, and find this summer.
As she kept writing, more things hap-
pened in her life that affected the novel.
For example, she fell in love againwith
fan of her booksafter having divorced
her husband of 28 years. Her new
romance inspired a wistful thought by
Luca: Love always came to me halfway.
One of the things he brought up in
so much, or so completely, says Allende,
adding that the one exception may have
been her first husband, although he was
immature. Look, I was 19 and he was
five years older, but it was as if he was
five years younger!

Amanutas
Coming-of-Age Story
The Chilean publisher is broadening its reach
By Ximena Diego
C
hilean picture book pub-
lisher Editorial Amanuta
explores off-the-beaten-path
topics in Latin American his-
tory and the folktales of
indigenous people, in such
titles as Sabores de Amrica/The Flavors of
America (2009), Son tantas cosas/So Many
Things (2016), and Atlas americano/
American Atlas (2017). Dozens of
Amanutas titles have received accolades
from such organizations as the Bologna
Childrens Book Fair and UNESCO, and
five have been included in the White
Ravens list from the International
Youth Library, which highlights the
most compelling childrens and young
adult titles.
The brainchild of cousins Ana Mara
Pavez and Constanza Recart, Amanuta
was conceived to fill a void in the local
publishing industry: picture books that
reflected Chiles identity. Our idea was
not to have a business, but to create a
cultural project, says Pavez. When she
was at Yale studying for her masters
degree in archeology, Pavez came across
the works of Eric Carle. She was smitten
by the beauty of the illustrations, the
rhyming text, the uncomplicated design.
She was also in awe of the sheer volume
of literature available in the U.S. for the
very young. Our children didnt have
access to literature conceived in their
own culture, says Pavez. We wanted
18 P U B L I S H E R S W E E K L Y N O V E M B E R 6 , 2 0 1 7
children in Chile to have that.
Upon returning to Santiago, she found
in Recart, then a child psychiatrist, the
perfect partner. In 2002, Amanuta
launched with Kiwala, a series of picture
books that used animals from the Andes
to tell the stories of indigenous people
and their natural world. The fictional
stories references real iconography, ani-
mals, and plants. Encouraged by good
sales and reviews, Amanuta continued
along that path, publishing folktales and
nonfiction titles that were written and
illustrated by Chilean artists and
illustrators.
Then came Sabores de Amrica, which
surveys the continents indigenous foods,
in 2009. With that title we stopped
being just Chilean and just for children.
We crossed that barrier, says Pavez
about the award-winning title. Scholastic
later published the paperback version in
the U.S.
Amanuta had another big break in the
international scene at the Bologna Book
Fair in 2014. The publisher brought to
the fair four newly released versions of
classic childrens fairy talesCaperucita
Roja (Little Red Riding Hood), Cenicienta
(Cinderella), Blanca Nieve en la casa de los
enanos (Snow White), and La Bella Durmiente
(Sleeping Beauty)which won the presti-
gious Bologna Ragazzi Award in the
New Horizons category.
These were no ordinary fairy tales: the

books took as their text verse versions of

the stories written and published in lit-
erary magazines in the 1920s by poet
Gabriela Mistral, South Americas first
Nobel laureate. The poems were brought
out of obscurity by literary critic Manuel
Pea, who presented them to the editors
at Amanuta. Each book is very special,
May 30 - June 1, 2018 says Recart. We kept the original text
Metropolitan Pavilion and paired it with illustrations by dif-
ferent artists. Each book includes a brief

afterword about historical context and
the literary publication in which the
poem originally appeared. The four
poems were not edited for current sensi-

the demise of Caperucita, who is not
