«Antología» is José Hierro's poetry anthology, selected by Aurora de Albornoz, published by Visor Libros in paperback (320 pages, in Spanish).
This anthology spans José Hierro's poetry from his first books of 1947. Hierro, appreciated during the heyday of social poetry, was reclaimed by young poets as a «poeta-puente» between the Generation of '27 and contemporary poetry. In «Libro de las alucinaciones» an anticipation of later trends has been seen.
Volume 123 of the Visor de Poesía collection, with selection and prologue by Aurora de Albornoz. 1985 edition.
José Hierro del Real, sometimes colloquially called Pepe Hierro, was a Spanish poet. He belonged to the so-called postwar generation, within the rootless and existential poetry streams. He wrote for both Espadaña and Garcilaso magazines. In 1981, he received the Prince of Asturias Awards in Literature, in 1998 the Cervantes Prize and he received many more awards and honours.
