“The more I age the more life I have left", concludes one of the poems of Argolis Diary (Diario de Argónida). Published when the Andalusian poet José Manuel Cabellero Bonald was over 70, this beautiful collection of crepuscular poems, full of experienced life, is a paean to fellow travelers “with little remorse and no abnegation,” to the geographic space the poet inhabits and where he declares himself. In short, this is a beautiful and happy elegy, the retelling and celebration of an existence —with errors no doubt— lived to the fullest.
