Poetry recital with Sandra Caula

Poetry recital with Sandra Caula

At the Cafè Art Fontanella XII in Olot, eleven of us gathered to listen to a poetry recital by two Venezuelan poets of the '78 generation, both born in the 1950s. Sandra Caula made an introduction about the historical and cultural moment in which the work of these writers emerged and about the themes that appear in their poetry, critical or new in the literary context of the moment. She also referred to the biography and work of each author. Afterwards, Sandra Caula and Federico Barea alternated reading a selection of poems by Yolanda Pantin and Verónica Jaffé. The audience showed great interest, asked questions and participated. They asked to reread some poems and others tried to translate them into English or to find Catalan equivalents for some terms. The atmosphere was intimate and the conversation was fluid.
