What is the purpose of travel in an age when millions are displaced against their will or have no home to speak of in the first place? How can we travel without being tourists, without erasing the stories of those who live where we visit? These are some of the questions addressed in Cristian Aliaga's compelling collection of prose poems, Music for Unknown Journeys.
This volume brings together a generous selection of Aliaga's prose poems, the majority previously unseen in English, as well as a substantial introduction to the author's work and its context, both literary and political, by the editor and translator.
Cristian Aliaga (b. 1962, Tres Cuervos, Province of Buenos Aires) is one of Argentina's foremost contemporary poets. His work has been highly praised in the TLS and elsewhere.
