Book, At your feet [LS]

Language: Brazilian Portuguese. One of the most striking and celebrated female voices in Brazilian poetry, Ana Cristina Cesar debuts the collection “Poesia de Pocket” with the classic A teus Pés. Mandatory reading for the Unicamp entrance exam. At Your Feet is the first and only book of poems that Ana Cristina Cesar released during her lifetime through a publisher, in 1982. In addition to unpublished material, the work brought together the three brief volumes that the author had published between 1979 and 1980 in home editions: April Scenes, Complete Correspondence and Kid Gloves. Challenging the concept of “women's literature” and dissolving the boundaries between prose, poetry and essay, the lyrical self and the biographical self, Ana soon caught the attention of critics such as Heloisa Buarque de Hollanda and Silviano Santiago. Including a chronology of the author, this contemporary classic that integrates Poetics, the collection of her complete poetry, now returns in separate form to the reader's hands, as it was idealized by the author.
