Set amidst the chaos of contemporary Brasília, a place where even the most basic human affairs -- love and friendship, sex and work -- can take unlikely shapes, this acclaimed story of friendship and its complicities is both relentlessly modern and profoundly timeless. Haquira Osakabe, Professor of Literary Theory at the University of Campinas, describes the novel as "intelligent, biting and lyrical." Winner of the Casa de las Americas 2003 Literary Award, The Five Seasons of Love is the work of a writer at the height of his powers (PRWeb Apr 21, 2008)

Written over 30 years ago and highly praised at the time, this volume disappeared during the brutal dictatorship of Augusto Pinochet and has recently resurfaced with power and artistry undamaged by the passage of time. These poems offer concise but penetrating language that still resonates today. Opening with spare meditations on solitude, suicide and murder the volume then reflects on degraded familial relationships ending in a powerful evocation of the erotic. This bilingual collection offers an emotional landscape rarely seen in poetry. (PRWeb Oct 30, 2006)
