«¿Qué puede la poesía?» is a poetry anthology by José Hierro, César Antonio Molina, Felipe Juaristi and others, in paperback (128 pages, in Spanish).
The book gathers a Franco-Spanish literary meeting held in Bilbao in 2001, where the authors reflect on the relevance of poetry at the beginning of the 21st century. Their texts, between tradition and avant-garde, combine poems and prose reasoning and address the usefulness and meaning of the genre.
Bassarai Ediciones published the work in 2002; the volume includes original texts in Spanish, French and Basque.
For readers interested in contemporary poetry and the dialogue between Spanish and French literary traditions.
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.
