Description: Outside Texts is a collection of poems that interrogate themselves, the Spanish language, the poetic self, and the author's personal geographies within and outside of Venezuela and Argentina. Animating the texts in this book is the experience of exile and migration in response to a collapsing nation and its ongoing dramatic crisis. These poems seek spaces to exist outside (and within) the everyday self and beyond the poem as a fixed creation. (Ugly Duckling Press)
