«Alzaré mi voz» is a selection of poems by Federico Mayor Zaragoza, published by Galaxia Gutenberg in paperback (152 pages, in Spanish).
The book brings together poems written by Mayor Zaragoza in different countries, marked by his experience as a political leader and man of peace. The texts move from philosophical notes to reflections on love, fatherhood and social problems, with the intention of restoring to the word its value against force or ignorance. The watercolor illustrations by Cachi Soler dialogue with the poetry and evoke an open handprint, an image that gives meaning to the title.
First edition. The volume includes illustrations by Cachi Soler.
Recommended for readers of committed poetry and for those familiar with the political and humanitarian career of Federico Mayor Zaragoza.
