Historia de la poesía argentina.
De Luis de Tejeda al siglo XX
by Luis Benitez
Contratapa de Luis Raúl Calvo: “Hay libros que por su gravitación se tornan imprescindibles: son aquellos que surgen para ocupar un espacio que no ha sido transitado ni desarrollado cabalmente. Tal es el caso de la “Historia de la Poesía Argentina”, de Luis Benítez, uno de los referentes importantes de la poesía de nuestro país y cuyo prestigio ha trascendido nuestras fronteras. Estamos en presencia de un ensayo único en su género: no hay antecedentes de un trabajo que abarque 400 años de desarrollo de la misma y que a su vez se sustente en un carácter inclusivo, ya que la sección “Poetas Referentes de cada Período” toma a más de 1.300 autores argentinos, respetando las diferencias en cuanto a temáticas, estilos y posiciones estéticas, lo cual le añade una posición ética a esta valiosa propuesta. Otro aspecto que la distingue es su carácter federal, ya que se ha pretendido hacer hincapié en los movimientos literarios que se han generado en todo el país, no sólo en Buenos Aires. En síntesis, una magnífica obra, dirigida a escritores, estudiantes, docentes, historiadores y a quienes aún llevan impregnada en su piel la pasión por la poesía.”

Children's & YASeptember 2018Dysfferent
by Fanny Vandermeersch
What a strange idea to call a child Charlemagne! Without this strange name, Charly is sure that he would be a child like any other... except for a few adjectives. He is said to be too distracted, dissipated, dispersed... to the great displeasure of the adults around him. And that often makes him the mockery of his classmates. Charlemagne is dyslexic, dysorthographic and dyspraxic. But who said that multi-dys children were good for nothing? Maybe it's a chance to be different!

by Pål H. Christiansen
The Scoundrel Days of Hobo Highbrow is about a down-on-his-luck 40ish writer obsessed about Paul Waaktaar-Savoy of the rock group a-ha. Hobo has published a few books and poems in the past and now works as a proof-reader for a newspaper. He aspires to write a Nobel Prize winning literary novel, but has a loose grip on reality. He selects Paul Waaktaar-Savoy as his idol, as someone like him who struggled from a little known country to break out on the world scene. Hobo has a penchant for words. His favorite book is the dictionary and, of course, he plays Scrabble with his girl friend Helle. He and his odd friends make for a humorous story laced with actual tidbits about a-ha.
