«ALEJANDRA PIZARNIK nació en Buenos Aires en 1939 y en esa misma ciudad abandonó voluntariamente la vida en 1972, y desde entonces ha pasado a ser una de las voces «heterodoxas» más representativas de la poesía en lengua española. «Releo con frecuencia tus poemas y los doy a leer a otros y les tengo amor. Son lindos animales un poco crueles, un poco neurasténicos y tiernos; son lindísimos animales: hay que alimentarlos y mimarlos; son preciosas fierecillas cubiertas de piel, quizá una especie de chinchillas: hay que darles sangre de lujo y caricias. Tengo amor a tus poemas; querría que hicieras muchos y que tus poemas difundieran por todas partes el amor y el terror.» A. P. de Mandiargues

Ugly Duckling Presse, 2017. Trade Paperback. New. New. First published in 1955 and now translated for the first time into English, The Most Foreign Country is Alejandra Pizarnik's debut collection. Here, the nineteen-year-old poet begins to explore the themes that will shape and define her vision: the solitude of the poetic self, the longing for artistic depth, and the tenuous nearness of death. By turns probing and playful, bold and difficult, Pizarnik's earliest poems teem with an exuberant desire 'to grab hold of everything' and to create a language that tests the limits of origin, paradox, and death. ~ Publisher.

Ugly Duckling Presse, 2014. Trade Paperback. New. New. In 1962, Pizarnik published her fourth collection, Diana's Tree, the book that would both change and establish her poetic voice, and it contained the slimmest verses the poet would ever write. It also carried a glowing introduction by Octavio Paz, who by that point served as a prominent Mexican diplomat in Paris and had become a leader of the city's expatriate literary circles. Diana's Tree, wrote Paz, was a feat of alchemical prowess, a work of precocious linguistic transparency that let off "a luminous heat that could burn, smelt or even vaporize its skeptics." ~ Publisher.
