Book, 29 poets today, As[LS]

Between written and spoken poetry, humor and revolt, intimate tone and performative voice, this anthology brings together an effervescent generation of young Brazilian poets. Forty-five years after the release of 26 poets today — an anthology that marked an epoch and became an inescapable document of the 1970s — Heloisa Buarque de Hollanda asked herself: who is creating poetry now? Upon realizing the surprising presence of women, each with their own diction and style, Heloisa brought together voices from a pulsating and combative generation, which impresses with its strength, courage and talent. The 29 poets today is an anthology that talks about identity, sex, love, fury, politics and Brazil today.
