14 de mayo de 1935 – 10 de mayo de 1975
Roque Dalton fue un poeta que navegó a menudo por la intersección de la literatura y la política. Su obra explora temas de injusticia y la lucha por la libertad, con frecuencia con un toque personal. El estilo de Dalton se reconoce por su cruda honestidad y su capacidad para fusionar las realidades cotidianas con profundas reflexiones existenciales. Sus poemas hacen eco de sus experiencias con el exilio, el encarcelamiento y el activismo político, forjando un legado literario poderoso y perdurable.
"One of Latin America's greatest poets, Roque Dalton was a revolutionary whose politics were inseparable from his art. Born in El Salvador in 1935, Dalton dedicated his life to fighting for social justice, while writing fierce, tender poems about his country and its people. In Stories and Poems of a Class Struggle, he explores oppression and resistance through the lens of five poetic personas, each with their own distinct voice. These poems show a country caught in the crosshairs of American imperialism, where the few rule the many and the many struggle to survive-and yet there is joy and even humor to be found here, as well as an abiding faith in humanity. In striking, immediate, exuberantly inventive language, Dalton captures the ethos of a people, as stirring now as when the book was first published forty years ago. "I believe the world is beautiful," he writes, "and that poetry, like bread, is for everyone.""-- Provided by publisher
