These four titles are the best introduction to the universe of the Peruvian Literary Avant-Garde of the Twentieth century. Since their publication, the incalculable influence of these authors has always been present throughout the vibrant history of poetry and literature in Peru.

Beginning with the musical experimentalism of Jose Maria Eguren’s first two collections of poems, Symbolics (1911) and The Song of the Figures (1916), the Peruvian Avant-Garde would find its greatest expression under the curatorship of Jose Carlos Mariategui and the magazine Amauta during the 1920s. Hope and the Sea by Magda Portal (1927) and The Cardboard House by Martin Adan (1928), both published by Mariategui’s Editorial Minerva, are two of the most important examples of the great amplitude of vision for literary creation in Peru.
