I'm with malanee on this, shifter, your poems were great, they say that through poetry you can see to someone's soul and those poems were just amazing.Which reminds me, I have to sned A1 a couple, possibly from Octavio Paz, my favorite writer.

shifterlx Posted January 23 Report Share Posted January 23 thanks vic and malanee, again. you know, vic... the preface to my book is a quote from Paz's 'El Laberinto de la Soledad'. glad we have something more in common, should make partying even better!'Self -discovery is above all the realization that we are alone:It is the opening of an impalpable, transparent wall---- that of our consciousness----- between theworld and ourselves. It is true that we sense our aloneness almost as soon as we are born, butchildren and adults can transcend their solitude and forget themselves in games or work. Theadolescent, however, vacillates between infancy and youth, halting for a moment before theinfinite richness of the world.He is astonished at the fact of his being, and this astonishment leads to reflection:As he leans over the river of his consciousness, he asks himself if the face that appears there,disfigured by the water, is his own....

A couple of years ago they had a simposium on Octavio Paz and I had the opportunity to meet Carlos Fuentes, another of my favorites. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For one thing, i have no idea where it is or how their events are scheduled, but do pass on the address if you may. I would def'nitely be interested in checking the place out. I love Carlos Fuentes also! I am currently reading his latest: 'Instinto de Inez' and i must say it is very very... AWESOME. you should check it out if you have not done so yet.
