Recent publications: Maria Cristina Monsalve’s compilation of La mano desasida (The Loosened Hand) includes 150 pages of yet-unpublished fragments, and it was awarded funds for its publication by the Peruvian government, Secretary of Culture in 2020. La mano desasida is a long and neglected poem by Peruvian Martín Adán (1908–85) about the stones of Machu Picchu. It was written in fragments around 1950 on a variety of unusual surfaces, including napkins, cigarette papers, and notebook pages that the poet himself never put together. Collecting the fragments of La mano desasida has been a challenge for decades. Portions of the poem were published in the 1960s, with a more but not entirely complete version of 200 pages produced in 1980.
Brian Tucker ’98 recently published his book, Theodor Fontane: Irony and Avowal in a Post-Truth Age.
