Reina María Rodríguez: “Today I want to write what is missing”
Abstract
This article analyzes the first books published by the Cuban poet Reina María Rodríguez: La gente de mi barrio (1975), Cuando una mujer no duerme (1982) y Para un cordero blanco (1984). And it reflects about the relevance of these as advance of the fracture that happens inside the national critical discourse of the Revolution, by which the unconditional acceptance of the transparency of the signifier cracks ‒the illusion of transparency of the signifier‒ as only discursive proposal for contemporary poetic practice. Definitely, we consider Reina María Rodríguez as precursor of the end of the conversational hegemony.Downloads
