Description:

"If we had to summarize in a few words what Santiago Acosta presents to us through his verses, we would have to say that we are faced with a formidable tour de force: the paradox of writing about our desperate present without restraints or concessions, with such dedication, strength, and intelligence that, by the end of each poem, something continues to shine in the darkness and, ironically, survives.

Far from nihilism, what Acosta’s resolute words ultimately seek to convey is less a vision of our current fears and more the urgency with which we must take on the challenge of rescuing, from the ruins of the planet, our dwindling desire for a future." (Gustavo Guerrero, translated from Spanish by Archivo Venezuela)
