I was introduced to this book by a friend in high school.He had stolen the only copy out of my schools library.. since then it is has been an impossible task to find the book.I don't know yet if this is the right one!Villaurrutia is an amazingly dark poet who writes exactly what the mind is thinking!Great translation, but nothing close to what the spanish is really saying!-Jamie

5-0 out of 5 stars Is this it?
An excellent collection of poems for the Modern Goth or anyone who isn't afraid of admitting that they've ever felt absolutely alone. Too bad it's so hard to find and the only published poems in translation from this poet.Dark in an age where it wasn't popular to be dark, accidentally rich inromance and rhythm, it brings literature back to a period when politicalstatements took a back seat to the root of poetry -- writing about whatyou're feeling. Again, I wish there were more of Villaurrutia's workavailable. ... Read more

Product Description
Poetry. Latino/Latina Studies. Gay & Lesbian Studies. Translated from the Spanish by D.M. Stroud and a preface and afterword by Elias Nandino. Xavier Villaurrutia (1903-1950) was the most distinguished member of Mexico's most celebrated literary group, the Contemporaneos. A closet queen who escaped his closet, instead of bursting forth with the energy of a Whitman, he flits about the corridors of his dreams like a sinister black moth. The very suppression of energy here is what creates its intensity, as in the unforgettable Decimas. This is the first complete bilingual edition of Villaurrutia's poems and will fill an important gap in the study of both gay and Mexican literature. "These beautiful translations convey perfectly the mixture of fear, hope, guilt, sensuality and elegance that are so typical of Villaurrutia"--Manuel Duran. ... Read more

Product Description
When Latin-American drama professor Frank Dauster brought Mexican poet and playwright Xavier Villaurrutia (1903-1950) to the attention of the English-reading public in 1971, more than two decades had passed since Villaurrutia's death. Known to a Spanish-speaking audience as a poet concerned with death, Villaurrutia wrote both poetry and drama. However, his first full-length play, INVITACIÓN A LA MUERTE, in 1947 marked the height of his dramatic career. The effort to connect the play to William Shakespeare's HAMLET brings Villaurrutia's work into a curious relationship with the famous tragedy. As this book reveals, Villaurrutia's reliance on Shakespeare permits him to dramatize the anguish affecting humankind in the twentieth century. This agony is at the center of Alberto's discomfort, intensified by the elements around which a modern-day Gertrude, Ophelia, Claudius, Horatio, and Polonius must grapple. When we confront Alberto, we see into the heart of the modern dilemma, a struggle not far from Shakespeare's Elsinore. ... Read more

Editorial Review

Product Description
One of the first of its kind, this study investigates how Mexican literature and culture interact with surrealist aesthetics. The work demonstrates that Mexican surrealist poetry pursues a reconciliation of opposites. This also work demonstrates how Mexican Surrealist poetry from the 1930s to the 1960s pursues a reconciliation of opposites. Drawing on scholarly theories and the work of Luis Mario Schneider, Michael Riffaterre, James Valender, Anthony Stanton, Manuel Ulacia, Paul Friederich, Eichenbaum and Shklovsky, this book analyzes how Villaurrutia, Paz, and Cernuda employed surrealist metaphors to bring together antithetical or complementary states: dream and vigil, life and death, past and present, writing and erotic desire.Whereas Villaurrutia's penumbral surrealism draws on marginal exponents of the movement such as Jean Cocteau, or precursors such as Giorgio de Chirico, Paz resurrects the surrealistic dualism of ancient gods already present in Cantares de los antiguos mexicanos.For his part, the Spaniard Luis Cernuda a poet from the Generation of 27, exiled in Mexico, reveals oneiric aspects of the Mexican landscape, defamiliarizing the image in a style suggestive of Louis Aragon in "Le Paysan de Paris". ...

La fina pluma de Villaurrutia (1903-1950), poeta, antes que otra cosa, tambien se ocupo de la critica literaria, el relato y la dramaturgia.

Excerpt: Caridad Bravo Adams (born on January 14, 1908 in Villahermosa, Tabasco August 13, 1990 in Mexico City) was a prolific Mexican writer and the most famous telenovela writer worldwide. She was born to a couple of Cuban actors and she was part of an extended family of artists, being the sister of Venezuelan actor Leon Bravo, one of the pioneers of theater, radio and TV in Venezuela. She published her first book at the age of 16, titled Pétalos sueltos. She then moved back to Cuba with her parents, and later returned to Mexico, where she kept writing and obtained a role in her only film, Corazón bandolero (1934). She became a chair member of the Ateneo Mexicano de Mujeres and later moved back to Cuba, where she wrote the radionovela Yo no creo en los hombres, which was adapted in Mexico for telenovelas in 1969 and 1988. Upon the rise of Fidel Castro, she returned to Mexico, where she would remain the rest of her life. Back in Mexico, she wrote Corazón salvaje, a novel that has been adapted to the screen twice and as a telenovela four times (including once as Juan del Diablo in Puerto Rico). She then wrote La intrusa, Bodas de odio and other novels that earned her important awards. Caridad Bravo Adams can easily be identified as the Margaret Mitchell of telenovelas. Though she has her own style of writing Caridads most successful stories are the ones in which she deals with the Margaret Mitchell-like topic of loveless marriage and the process of conquering ones wife. In Corazón Salvaje, La mentira, Bodas de odio (and later Amor real), El otro (and later Por tu amor) she deals with the subject of a seemingly loveless marriage that turns out not to be so. Just like Mitchell, Caridad explores the human psychology from the perspective... More: http://booksllc.net/?id=4007666 ... Read more
