«Historia de un alma» is Antonio Praena's poetry collection, published by Visor Libros in paperback (86 pages, in Spanish).
The collection starts from a man of upper class, cultured and influential, immersed in a double life; the poet's voice blurs and the subject could be any of the suited elite men who have lost their way. With brusque and anti-lyrical language, and a mystical counterpoint, it reflects on postmodernity, loss of meaning, and moral decay.
The book belongs to the Visor de Poesía collection (no. 1007) and won the XXVII Jaime Gil de Biedma Poetry Prize in 2017.
For readers of contemporary Spanish poetry seeking a critical gaze and an anti-lyrical register.
