Digo que no puede decirse el amor. El amor se come como un pan, se muerde como un labio, se bebe como un manantial. Mario Benedetti seleccionó los mejores poemas de amor para que las nuevas generaciones se inicien en la obra de Jaime Sabines, a quien consideraba «el más notable precursor de la poesía coloquial en América Latina» y «uno de los poetas fundamentales, no sólo de México sino de Hispanoamérica y la lengua castellana».

Solo recibe

Through the lens of horror-from Halloween to Hereditary-queer and trans writers consider the films that deepened, amplified, and illuminated their own experiences.
Horror movies hold a complicated space in the hearts of the queer community: historically misogynist, and often homo-and transphobic, the genre has also been inadvertently feminist and open to subversive readings. Common tropes-such as the circumspect and resilient "final girl," body possession,...
