Sin puertas visibles (No Visible Doors) is a fully bilingual anthology that features emerging women poets whose work provides a taste of the adventurous new spirit infusing Mexican literature. All eleven poets represented have had at least one book published in Mexico, yet none of their work has been translated into English until now.Featuring the work of: Cristina Rivera-Garza, Carla Faesler, Angelica Tornero, Ana Belen L—pez, Silvia Eugenia Castillero, M—nica Nepote, Dana Gelinas, Maria Rivera, Ofelia Perez Sepœlveda, Dorantes, and Laura Sol—zano. Mexico poesses one of Latin America's most important poetic traditions, but its depth and range are virtually unknown to readers north of the border. Reflecting the diversity and complexity f contemporary mexican poetry, the poems presented here are by turns meditative and explosive, sensuous and inventive, ironic and tender—in short, they are subversive, provocative, and bold.
