Santiago Poems
by James Scully
“A rich, vivid, and eloquent chronicle of life...relevant well into the future.” -- The Minnesota Review
|
Santiago Poems is a concise collection of lyric poems describing life in Santiago de Chile immediately following the Pinochet coup d’état. It includes a tribute to Victor Jara, descriptions of the chillingly quiet terror of the Santiago streets and the many disappearances.
Published several years before the film "Missing", it lays the groundwork for that film, and other publications about that period, in hard-hitting lyrics.
