Description
INTERNA LLANURAS SUCESIONES
Book Summary
This volume brings together two poetry collections by Oriana Méndez that explore the tension between the intimate and the expansive. In Interna, the poet transforms the body and consciousness into enclosed spaces where words hold the tremor of fragility. In Llanuras sucesiones, the landscape opens up to investigate continuity and movement. A work that oscillates between the wound and the horizon, offering precise and mysterious poetry that shies away from neither pain nor beauty.
What is it about?
Interna is a collection of poems that delves into confined spaces: the body, consciousness, fragility. Each poem acts as a dimly lit room where the word becomes a support against the tremor of existence. Intimacy does not retreat, but pulsates with a precision that knows where it hurts while keeping the mystery intact.
Llanuras sucesiones, for its part, opens the landscape. The plain is not presented as a void, but as continuity: a territory where language unfolds to explore the succession of moments, memory, and a gaze that extends without limits. Both books dialogue between the closed and the open, the vulnerable and the expansive, weaving a poetic breath that goes from the wound to the horizon.

A work recommended for those looking for contemporary poetry with substance and sensitivity.
