"This isn't for life" by Juan Gabriel Miño is now available for pre-order at the link in our bio. Books ship in October :)
*
There’s a survivor / of the absolute solitude that lives and lingers /
within solitude, tracing lines that form /
meanings. /
That’s how it melts away: /
the fear of recognizing yourself /
as a stranger in some window.

"This isn't for life" is a translated, bilingual edition of Argentine poet Juan Gabriel Miño's 2024 debut book of poems, "No toda la vida vamos a estar juntos," published by Mansalva Editions. Translated by Andrew Judson Stoughton and Anayvelyse Allen-Mossman, and featuring cover art by Santiago Licata, "This isn't for life" takes the flaneur, the vernacular poet, the confessional poet, and "bashes [their] head against the grate." This is a book where people watch their mothers get in car accidents on live TV. Mexican singers almost meet their deaths at the hands of their adoring fans. Workers scream at children about the absolute, existential necessity of having a beer.
Buy this book, dummy.

el lunes que viene presentamos en NY mi libro «This isn’t for life», la traducción al inglés de «No toda la vida vamos a estar juntos». no tengo mucho que decir porque lo que siento es un poco extraño y grande, que hasta me enfermé. una amiga hace poco me dijo “mirá a dónde te llevó la poesía” y es cierto, eso de la poesía, que casi ni ocupa lugar en el mercado literario pero sin embargo hace cosas como estas, nada terrenales
la presentación es el lunes 27 de octubre a las 7 pm en @dearfriendbooks y van a leer @alexisfarrisalmeida@g_l_i_m_m@ivmrls@garrettstanfordphelps y yo
le agradezco más que mucho a mis traductores y editores @ajstst y @anayvelyse , a @newmundopress , la editorial que me aloja allá, a @editorialmansalva y a mis editores argentinos @franciscogaramona y @ultratrotsky , a santi licata (que no tiene ig) por el arte de tapa, a @ivmrls x ser el mejor, a mis amigxs que me pasan oxígeno y vuelven mi vida un poco más linda, y a algo que no conozco y no tiene nombre pero le digo gracias a esa nebulosa con la que convivo
From our bilingual edition of Juan Gabriel Miño's debut collection, "This isn't for life," translated by Andrew Judson Stoughton and Anayvelyse Allen-Mossman.
