Teresa Palazzo Conti, New Book in San Francisco

"Alegato de Mujer / A Woman´s Plea", Mariposa Blanca Press, 2013

"These totally unique poems are rich in language and voice and chart the passions of contemporary Latin American women like few ever have. As such, this book of poems redefine contemporary Latin American poetry and nudge it into the 21st century.
And rarely have photos been such an important part of a poetry text--but in this case Adrian Arias's work adds a beautiful texture to the words."

Alejandro Murguia, San Francisco Poet Laureate
Author of Stray Poems, City Lights Books

"La escritura de Teresa Palazzo Conti ofrece una complejidad monolítica que puede caracterizarse como imagen de un sondeo cada vez más profundo del tema de la existencia".

Marta de París

"La poesía de Teresa Palazzo Conti tiene el atractivo impactante y la simpleza
de los poetas grandes. Logra en pocas palabras de una
lírica impresionante, dar vida a las cosas".

Paz).
