A poetic journey through the origins of his inspiration, his hometown, and his thoughts about literature, war, and life.

He has won several literary prices such as 'Quinto Sol', and he was the first Mexican American writer to win 'El Premio Casa de las Americas', one of the most important literary prices in Hispanic Literature.
