Miguel Angel Real
Born in Valladolid (Spain) in 1965, Miguel Angel Real holds a Spanish teaching qualification and teaches at the Lycée de Cornouaille in Quimper. A poet and translator of contemporary poetry, his works, both in Spanish and French, have appeared in numerous journals in France, Spain, and Latin America. He is the author of the collections "Zoologías" (Ed. En Huida, Spain), "Comme un dé rond" (Like a round die), Ed. Sémaphore (Quimperlé, bilingual edition), and several translation books, both written alone and in collaboration...
Driven by boundless curiosity and imagination, Miguel Ángel Real writes a book that opposes the dogmas and reality imposed on us, asserting the power of constantly renewed observation of what surrounds us. These texts, based on the principle that paths exist, but we do not see them, require us to reconsider what we believe to be fixed, through a profoundly poetic reflection on the value of words that, in order not to remain mere useless rebellions, must constantly push their limits, in order to search in appearances for those hidden details that help us recreate the meaning of the world.
