«Poesía completa» is the poetic work of Carlos Barral published by Lumen in paperback, edited and with a prologue by Carme Riera, 304 pages.
«Poesía completa» gathers the verse work of Carlos Barral, from his early poetry collections to the end of his career, and traces his evolution as a poet. Barral's verse combines a reflection on Spain in the second half of the twentieth century with the memory of the Mediterranean landscape of Calafell, travel, painting and, in the final texts, the closeness of death.
The 1998 edition, with prologue and notes by Carme Riera, organises the poems into sections such as «Fósiles», «Sonetos» and «Metropolitano».
For readers of contemporary Spanish poetry and for those who want to approach the lyrical work of a poet of the Generation of '50.
Carlos Barral i Agesta (1928–1989) was a Spanish poet, considered to be one of the greatest poets of the so-called generation of the 1950s. He helped to establish the Formentor Group and their literary awards the Prix Formentor and the Prix International. He was also a member of the European Parliament and an important publisher.
