Text Publishers:
The fourth book in Laura Chalar ventures into a hybrid genre, halfway between poetry and the story - the "micro-text." The recovery of childhood and memory are present in it, but also the busy city every day and daily activities. The book contains a small number of texts, almost post on distant countries, and a sequence that traces the life of an English poet exiled from their land. As the back of the book, "Light texts (stories, poems or images, as given the light and the reader's mind) point the way."
Laura is the author of three previous books. With one of them, "The Discreet Charm of the legal profession, won an Honorable Mention in Fiction published in the Literary Competition of the Ministry of Education and Culture of Uruguay, 2009 edition.
