Luis Artigue. Dosier de prensa de Helena (2023)Helena is a night that spills over, a divided loneliness and a tearing of the heart, which beats stronger than ever. In this collection of poems, Luis Artigue (León, 1974) rediscovers the dedication of love strengthened by adversity, illuminated with a language between confession and visionary. And it also gives us a way to perceive our own fragility through music, affection and beauty.
