All of them have published extensively, have been recognized through literary awards and inclusion in national and international anthologies, and continue writing and publishing today. For readers unfamiliar with Ecuador, the Introduction provides a brief background of its geography, history, politics, economy, and society. This is followed by an ample selection of representative poems published previously in Spanish, with translations in English on facing pages. The book concludes with a brief biographical sketch of each poet and an unprecedented bibliography of primary and secondary sources for those readers who might want to pursue further reading or research on any poet of interest. Contemporary Uruguayan Poetry: A Bilingual Anthology and Exotic Territory: A Bilingual Anthology of Contemporary Paraguayan Anthology are two companion volumes that offer similar exposure to poetry that deserves to be better known in the English-speaking world.

Sullo sfondo del feudalesimo, creature dotate di poteri soprannaturali e sudditi inermi lottano per la sopravvivenza, oppressi da un tiranno secolare e divisi dalla superstiziosa paura dell'infezione demoniaca. L'atavica leggenda nera narra di demoni predatori talmente feroci da intimorire un drago famelico. Philip il Sanguinario persegue lo sterminio degli Infetti con il sostegno della Setta, un ordine religioso reso potente dagli oscuri alchimisti di Duran. I confratelli sono impareggiabili cacciatori di demoni, ma minacciano gli antichi privilegi dei feudatari. Nel fastoso mondo aristocratico, una donzella di nobile stirpe viene promessa in sposa al famigerato Duca.

Ovunque, l'Eroe Mascherato sfida gli spietati cacciatori di Infetti e si proclama paladino della giustizia.

In verità, nel Regno dei Lord più che altrove l'apparenza inganna. Arcani. Trame e delitti, amore e coraggio, lealtà e inganno: in fatti di sangue di tempi lontani si celano i misteri della dinastia egemone, inquietanti come lo sguardo cieco del Duca. Storie d'amore. Sotto la tirannide di Philip il Sanguinario, l'amore è un barlume di speranza, come quel raggio di luna che rischiara le fitte ombre del Lord della Notte, foriero dell'alba Wildsibling.
