The Uplands: Book of the Courel and other poems by Uxío Novoneyra, translated by Erín Moure: The great Uxío Novoneyra, Galician poet and man of the land, stands with Lorca as a poetic visionary of 20th-century Spain. He was devoted to his region, the mountainous Courel, to its variant of Galician and to its names and ways, as well as to Galician culture as a whole, to the expression of all minority cultures and to freedom from imperialism, war, and economic expansionism.
Ready, Set, Go by Inés Bortagaray, translated by Ana Patete: This novella chronicles the inner meditations and sporadic external interactions of a young girl in the backseat of a car on her way to a beach town with her family.
We Do Not Live in Vain by Selva Casal, translated by Jeannine Marie Pitas: Drawing upon her academic training in sociology and her experiences as a penal lawyer, Casal lays bare the stark realities of the human condition: our capacity for violence and cruelty as well as our profound ability to love and care for one another.
dis tanz by Inna Krasnoper: These poems insist that communication is a process and ask for an active mode of reading and localizing oneself.
