Con catulo de rodilla

Notes: Poems in cartonera (cardboard) covers. 34 pages.

Cartonera is a publishing movement started in Argentina about 2003. Small press publishers, mostly featuring poetry, print inexpensive chapbooks and bind them with repurposed cardboard with hand-decorated covers. Frequently the covers are made by different people and seldom have a uniform design. While cartonera books are distinctly Latin American, they share some of the publishing ethos of the mimeograph revolution in the United States.

Edition + Condition: A near fine copy with a painted background and a collaged image of dancers on the cover.

Publication: Cuernavaca, Mexico: La Ratona Cartonera, 2010.
