Fernando Villalón: El Poeta Y Su Obra

Spanish literary critics and poets of the stature of Juan Ramón Jiménez, Gerardo Diego, Rafael Alberti and Pedro
Salinas, have noted repeatedly the importance of Fernando Villalón's work, and the originality and significance of
his poetry. The present book is the first in-depth study of Villalón's literary production. It examines how the
extraordinary popularity Villalón enjoyed as a person has to a great extent overshadowed his work, and separates,
finally, the myth relative to Villalón's personality and life-style from historical reality.
