Juan Manuel Marcos (Asuncion, 1950) has spent a significant portion of his adult life in exile, both in Spain and in the United States, where he taught at the University of California, Los Angeles. Intimately associated with the magazine Criterio and the Nuevo Cancionero Paraguayo musical movement, he is widely considered the principal literary figure in the resistance against the Stroessner dictatorship, and the most universal current Paraguayan writer. In Poemas y canciones, Marcos charts his poetic journey through activism, exile, and the simple trials of human affection. The present edition brings that journey for the first time before the English-speaking public, and includes a new English version and introduction by acclaimed professor and expert on Paraguay Tracy K. Lewis, author of the first translation of Marcos' novel El invierno de Gunter, now available in forty languages world-wide."
