Notes

  • Dedication: Para Elvira Siurana y las españolas y españoles que nos han abierto sus puertas [For Elvira Siurana and those Spaniards, women and men, who have opened their doors to us].
  • Epigraph:
    Dijeron que un poema
    debería ser menos personal
    que eso de hablar de tú o de yo
    es cosa de mujeres.
    Que no es serio.

    Por suerte o por desgracia
    todavía hago lo que quiero.
    -- Ana María Rodas

    [They said that a poem
    should be less personal
    that talking about you or me
    is a women's thing

    Fortunately or unfortunately
    I still do what I want]
  • With an introduction by Lidia Falcón.
  • English translation of the title: Song to Némisis: Poems of a foreigner
