A Musical Hell

by Alejandra Pizarnik and Yvette Siegert

"An aura of legendary prestige surrounds the work of Alejandra Pizarnik," writes C sar Aira. Her last collection to be published before her suicide in 1972, A Musical Hell is the first book of poems by Pizarnik to be published in its entirety in the U.S. Pizarnik writes at the edge of poetic impossibility, opening with a blues singer, expanding into silence, and closing into a theater of shadows and songs of the drowned.
