Alternating Current - Tapa blanda

A key figure in the Latin American literary renaissance, Octavio Paz focuses here on literature and art, drugs, the murder of God and ethical and political problems. In the first part of this acclaimed work, Octavio Paz sets forth his credo as an artist and a poet. Part two deals with themes more specific to the late sixties and seventies, such as the drug experience and modern atheism. In part three, Paz concerns himself with politics and ethics. In no way diminished by time, every chapter in this book is an adventure of the mind.
