Poetry. Latino/Latina Studies. Bilingual Edition. Translated from the Spanish by Michelle Gil-Montero.The forest dark as ever, without latitudes. An aide-de-camp to say something about nothing and guide us up the river of blood.Maria Negroni's novel-in-verse presents a journey to a terrible yet somehow perfect Hell, poised on that margin where selfhood, suffering, literature, Art, and all forms may be contemplated at that very moment where they fall away. Negroni virtuosically joins an intensity of form to a piercing use of image which swiftly dazzles and inevitably saddens, for life cannot be as perfect as this work of Art.
