Framing Roberto Bola: Poetry, Fiction, Literary History, Politics (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781108735568)

Poetry, fiction, literary history, and politics. These four cornerstone concerns of Roberto Bola o's work have established him as a representative, generational figure in not only Chile, Mexico, and Spain, the three principal locations of his life and work, but throughout Europe and the Americas, increasingly on a global scale. At the heart of Bola o's 'poemas-novela', his poet- and poetry-centered novels, is the history and legacy of the prose poem. Challenging the policing of boundaries between verse and prose, poetry and fiction, the literary and the non-literary, the aesthetic and the political, his prose poem novels offer a sustained literary history by other means, a pivotal intervention that restores poetry and literature to full capacity. Framing Roberto Bola o is one of the first books to trace the full arc and development of Bola o's work from the beginning to the end of his career.
