Viejo Buen Amigo Poeta
One of the many books published by Dominican award-winning poet Rene Rodriguez Soriano.

Rene Rodriguez Soriano is one of the finest poets of his generation that could be comfortably placed at any cardinal point of the Latin American intellectual cartography and dress the Spanish language with its best garb. A personal friend of mine for more than 23 years and an old colleague from my days in the advertising industry. At one point, we were copywriters for different agencies that were located in the same building. He was on the 6th floor and I was on the 5th floor.
The book pictured with this post “Canciones Rosas para una Niña Gris Metal” was pasted-up into life form on top of a draftman's table that sat in the living room of my then apartment, overlooking the old colonial city of Santo Domingo, its harbor and the Ozama River, way back in 1982.

Today he is in Miami and I am in Tampa. Close enough.

Ah, those were the days of sharing “ginebra importada”, the poetry of AntonioCon saludos a Miriam, Jairo y Piero.
Machado, the songs of Alberto Cortez and a quest for the meaning of our youth
through the magic of exquisite Spanish prose.
