Poetry Book Society Translation Choice 2026'One of the greatest poets the world has today.' —José Saramago, Winner of the 1998 Nobel Prize in LiteratureThis bilingual edition makes Juan Gelman’s hauntingly beautiful poetry collection, Notes / Notas, available to English-speaking audiences in its entirety for the first time.Originally published in 1979, Notas / Notes was composed in exile, following the 1976 military coup d'etat in Argentina. This period of state terrorism resulted in the disappearance of writers, comrades, and Gelman’s own son.With a deep appreciation for Gelman’s masterful linguistic play, translators Afsari and Tandeciarz channel the force of his poetic testimony against the real violence of dictatorship.Interweaving reflections on revolution, loss and memory, Argentina’s poet laureate conjures forth a sense of hope in the wake of inconceivable suffering.

Mer om författaren

Juan Gelman (1930-2014) has been widely hailed as one of the greatest contemporary Spanish-language poets as well as Argentina’s poet laureate, publishing more than twenty books of poetry over the course of his lifetime. In 2007, Gelman became the fourth Argentine to be awarded the Miguel de Cervantes Prize, the most prestigious Spanish-language literary award, following in the footsteps of Jorge Luis Borges, Ernesto Sabato and Adolfo Bioy Casares.

Recensioner i media

These are not merely translations; they are acts of listening and resistance... Notes/Notas is a book of ghosts, but also of defiance. It insists that language, however fractured, can still hold memory, rage, and love together. This translation doesn’t resolve Gelman’s tensions—it lets them burn. —Leo Boix, Poetry Book Society Autumn Bulletin
