Yire, yire, yire. Nothing better to adjust the eye of crazy reader than the halls of the International Book Fair of Buenos Airesat the La Rural Fairground, which has already started its last week.

Some jewels and those exhausted

Also, the offer of the work of the poet Villero Marica, Ioshua, whose books and poems are difficult to achieve is notorious, especially because they have compiled in different ways over the years and their versions are scarce.
Finally, and highlighting the difficulty of finding the titles in the usual libraries, the October Group Stand (Blue Pavilion, Stand 705) contains the seal I am Librarywhich has published throughout the years authors such as Marlene Wayar, Paquito Jamandreu, Sylvia Molloy, Gabriela Cabezón Cámara, Camila Sosa Villada, among others.
