I was sitting on a bench along the Paseo de Reforma in Mexico City. It was early in the morning. The festive atmosphere of New Year's Eve had given way to a cool and bright dawn. Across the street I could see a plywood barricade that had gone up temporarily around a construction site. The boards were covered with graffiti. On one of them, a tagger had written some verses by José Gorostiza. The writing was signed by: \"The Committee for the Defense of the Language.\" I was struck by the poem, and the next day I went to a bookstore in the Zona Rosa and bought a thin volume of Gorostiza's complete works. I have been translating his writing since then.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Robert Klein Engler\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1304899152\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781304899156\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Lulu.com\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/01\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 118\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.28d","brand":"Robert Klein Engler","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46431456559359,"sku":"9781304899156","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_73b7dc12-e7f8-4104-8b1e-9ad660f5f5bc.jpg?v=1735141394","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-poetry-of-joszs-gorostiza-robert-klein-engler-9781304899156","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
