The author explores the limits of sentimental language through a drama of love and jealousy, where a maguey—a plant that grows wherever it pleases—becomes a symbol of the unforeseen and the exotic. Accompanied by an essay that questions the current avenues for lyrical expression, the book offers a poetic experience that plays with rhythms, grammatical knots, and a breath of its own, inviting the reader to delve into a territory of mysterious crystals and overflowing emotions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is it about?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book arises from a fragment the author decided to extract from \u003cem\u003eAmor divino\u003c\/em\u003e, feeling it did not fit into the whole but deserved to exist on its own. Thus, these pages are presented as a side shoot, a space where the maguey—a plant that takes root wherever it wants—symbolizes creative freedom and the expansion of language. The work is structured around a drama of love and jealousy, exploring emotional tensions and sentimental conflicts with an agrammatical and rhythmic style. In addition, it includes an essay that reflects on the concept of lyricism and contemporary ways of expressing sentimental language, offering a dual reading: poetic and theoretical. It is a text that challenges formal conventions and seeks new ways to say the unsayable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMain themes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eLove and jealousy as dramatic and transformative forces.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eContemporary lyricism and its unconventional forms of expression.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eLanguage as a territory for experimentation, with rhythmic and agrammatical knots.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eNature and the unforeseen, symbolized by the figure of the maguey as an exotic and free plant.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe autonomy of the text and the creative process of detaching a work to give life to another.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is it recommended for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book is aimed at readers interested in experimental contemporary poetry who are looking for works that challenge traditional lyrical structures.

Ángela Segovia's proposal is daring and consistent with her experimental trajectory, offering a text that is not afraid of being agrammatical or rhythmically free. The inclusion of an essay on contemporary lyricism enriches the reading and places it in a reflective context. It is a brief but intense work that may interest both followers of avant-garde poetry and those looking for new ways to approach sentimental language. Its value lies in its creative honesty and in the ability to generate its own space for what initially seemed to be a surplus.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"EDICIONES LA UÑA ROTA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53407428968795,"sku":"9788495291820","price":10.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1018\/0650\/6331\/files\/978849529182.jpg?v=1781855532","url":"https:\/\/kalamobooks.com\/en\/products\/9788495291820","provider":"Kalamo Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
