White Light: The Poetry of Alberto Blanco explores the interplay of complementary images and concepts in A la luz de siempre, the Mexican writer and visual artist's vast trilogy of poems from 1979-2018. By focusing on listening and seeing, Blanco's highly interdisciplinary poetry transforms his inspirations into the inspiration of his readers.
