«Canciones del Más Acá» is Mario Benedetti's poetry collection, published by Editorial Seix Barral in paperback (152 pages, in Spanish).
This poetry collection brings together texts that Mario Benedetti composed with music in mind: poems to be sung and others adapted to song. His verses blend the everyday and the epic, emotion and political commitment, with a direct style that Joan Manuel Serrat, Nacha Guevara and Amparo Ochoa brought to music.
The work originally appeared in 1989; this 1997 edition belongs to the Biblioteca Mario Benedetti collection.
For poetry readers and fans of singer-songwriter music: poems conceived to be sung, popularized by Serrat or Nacha Guevara.
Mario Benedetti Farrugia, was a Uruguayan journalist, novelist, and poet and an integral member of the Generación del 45. Despite publishing more than 80 books and being published in twenty languages, he was not well known in the English-speaking world. In the Spanish-speaking world, he is considered one of Latin America's most important writers of the latter half of the 20th century.
