About the author

Rodolfo Alonso (Buenos Aires, 1934) was the youngest editor of the legendary Argentine journal, Poesía Buenos Aires. From his first collection To Health or Nothing (1952) to his latest Pending Poems (2011), his work spans sixteen volumes of poetry, in addition to books of essays and fiction. He is a prolific translator of poetry into Spanish (Apollinaire, Baudelaire, Eluard, Montale, Pavese, Pessoa, Prévert, Pasolini, Ungaretti, and many others). He has also written screenplays and texts for short films, many of them prize-winning. He was the director of his own publishing house, which brought out more than two hundred fifty titles. Between 1986 and 1989 he was the Director of Argentina’s National Funds for the Arts. Anthologies of his poetry have come out in Colombia, Cuba, Mexico, Spain, and Venezuela, and have been translated into French, Galician, Italian, and Portuguese. In 1997 he received Argentina’s National Poetry Prize.
