Vida

In 2022 the centenary of the birth of José Hierro is commemorated, and this book is the due tribute to one of the most important poets of the Spanish 20th century. There are no biographies of Hierro, so Vida is destined to become a reference title for learning about the origins and evolution of his work. In it we reveal decisive aspects of his life trajectory: his time in prison after the Civil War, his dozens of subsistence jobs, his love for the sea and the countryside, his passion for drawing, travel, tobacco... Vida, written by Jesús Marchamalo, with a wide selection of poems, compiled by the poet and critic Lorenzo Oliván, also includes numerous photographs and graphic material of the poet.
