A collected edition of a poet's work since 1965, bringing together his earlier books with poems not gathered before, introduced by Marco Antonio Campos. Its voice tells rather than declaims, close to pleasure and to anger, and draws portraits of cities, faces, landscapes and climates. Sections such as 'Diary of Your Body' and 'Poem of the Body' turn to desire; others, like 'Songs of Sigüenza', 'Songs of Tomelloso' and 'In England Now', follow the poet's travels, and humour often comes dressed as bitterness.
