The debut US poetry collection from social media star Elvira Sastre, exploring the sharp, slippery moments that turn a beloved relationship into something self-destructive. Counting the days that pass after a devastating breakup, Elvira Sastre confronts the haunting questions that surround every failed relationship: What happened? Where did it all go wrong? How did it all fall apart? With a bold, lyrical voice poised on the knife’s edge of romance and grief, Sastre evokes the heady rush of first love and the sorrow of its painful end—even as she learns to pick up the pieces and move on after the worst has happened. At once deeply personal and universally resonant, painful and resoundingly hopeful, One Day I Will Save Myself speaks to the poet in all of us. An intimate journey through loving, losing, and living that inspires readers to begin their own healing and is perfect for fans of Rupi Kaur, r.h. Sin, and Atticus.

Three centuries of a family history that incite, more than to bask in the display of an absent aristocratic ancestry, to explore the details of a trajectory that begins in the British colonial world of north America, to anchor in the late 19th century in the wild frontier of the northeast of Santa Fe, Argentina. A panorama where the lights and shadows of lives that have left a deep mark are integrated.
Latin American Digital Poetics seeks to take the pulse of emergent poetic forms whose history is entangled with the computational and its AI dreams and achievements. This study carefully and thoroughly probes the intersection between the literary, the cultural, and the scientific-technological in order to reflect on the ways that digital technology has radically reshaped and reconfigured nearly all aspects of contemporary culture. The main idea of this book, then, is simple: by way of panoramic approaches to digital poetry as well as select case studies, we seek to account for the multi-directional exchange between poetry, technology, and culture via a (primarily) pedagogical approach.
The existence of World Literature depends on specific processes, institutions, and actors involved in the global circulation of literary works. The contributions of this volume aim to pay attention to these multiple material dimensions of Latin American 20th and 21st century literatures. From perspectives informed by materialism, sociology, book studies, and digital humanities, the articles of this volume analyze the role of publishing houses, politics of translation, mediators and gatekeepers, allowing insights into the processes that enable books to cross borders and to be transformed into globally circulating commodities. The book focusses both on material (re)sources of literary archives, key actors in literary and cultural markets, prizes and book fairs, as well as on recent dimension of the digital age. Statements of some of the leading representatives of the global publishing world complement these analyses of the operations of selection and aggregation of value to literary texts.
The poetry of 2am Thoughts condenses an entire relationship with its untamed emotions and experiences to a single day. As the long hours of the night drag on, so does the love, heartache, and loss. When the dawn breaks, the morning sun brings acceptance, healing, and recovery.
La incorporación de la llamada generación millenial al ámbito de la literatura en general y de la poesía en particular, ha provocado un cambio en los modos de producción y recepción del poema. Los jóvenes utilizan ahora las herramientas digitales como algo inherente a su cotidianeidad, como la fórmula para intercomunicarse con el mundo (la amistad en ese entorno virtual se mide ahora en número de seguidores o de likes), especialmente en contextos no formales que al final son los que sustancian el día a día. Y con esos parámetros miran también la literatura. Las estructuras de difusión de la poesía han sufrido una evolución tan rápida y tan ágil hacia este camino de lo digital que ha pillado desprevenidos tanto al lector tradicional como a los autores que responden a parámetros canónicos.
Las Humanidades Digitales son, sin más, las Humanidades de hoy. E l quehacer humanista ha devenido en labor interdisciplinar, multidisciplinar y pluridisciplinar. Profundizando en esta idea, reconocemos que la base de este nuevo medio y canal se sustenta, en gran medida, en la existencia del hipertexto, podríamos afirmar que la labor del humanista del siglo XXI es hiperdisciplinar, tomando prestado el prefijo del griego clásico ὑπέρ —híper— con el significado de ‘por encima de’, ‘más allá de’. Aceptamos, así, desde este punto de vista que cualquier trabajo de y en Humanidades va más allá de lo que tradicionalmente se ha considerado nuestra disciplina, y que se actua...
THE SUNDAY TIMES TOP TEN BESTSELLER THE HIGHLY ANTICIPATED DEBUT BOOK OF POETRY FROM LANA DEL REY, VIOLET BENT BACKWARDS OVER THE GRASS 'Violet Bent Backwards Over the Grass is the title poem of the book and the first poem I wrote of many. Some of which came to me in their entirety, which I dictated and then typed out, and some that I worked laboriously picking apart each word to make the perfect poem. They are eclectic and honest and not trying to be anything other than what they are and for that reason I’m proud of them, especially because the spirit in which they were written was very authentic. Lana Del Rey Lana’s breathtaking first book solidifies her further as 'the essential write...
Este non é un libro de texto, non é un manual de instrucións, non pretende ser exemplo de nada, non sabe a receita didáctica. Só sostén entre as mans un reto quen vai á escola con ganas de xogar. Se tes medo a dubidar, MOVE FICHA! Se cres que cada xeración le menos cá anterior: MOVE FICHA! E que treman os andeis que están por construír! Move ficha: antes de cubrir ocos con caixóns gramaticais, logo de non querer trabucarte. Non repartas fichas iguais. Viste o disfrace de docente e sae brincar. Entra ao colexio bailando. Contaxia aos demais. Volve empezar. MOVE FICHA!
