Summary: | This article analyses the second collection of poems by Blanca Andreu (A Coruña, 1959), a series of apocalyptic visions that mark a spiritual journey and a meditation on the transformative and revealing power of poetry as on the prevalence of a sacred nature of language. Andreu's writing renews a «vocabulary of mysticism», according to Sylvia Sherno, and creates his own universe of images around the animal, blood and fire, drawing on close affiliations of surrealism and orphism. |
