Ramiro Gairín, an Aragonese poet born in Zaragoza in 1980, has established himself as one of the most original and profound voices in contemporary Spanish poetry.
With a career spanning fifteen years, Gairín has demonstrated a unique ability to interweave the everyday with the transcendental, the personal with the universal.
His most recent collection of poems, ‘Carreteras que brillan en el bosque,’ published by Reino de Cordelia, represents the culmination of years of reflection on memory, landscape, and the passage of time. This work, awarded the XXVII City of Salamanca Poetry Prize, is a milestone in Gairín's career and in contemporary Spanish poetry.
A jury chaired by Antonio Colinas Lobato and composed of Asunción Escribano Hernández, Fermín Herrero Redondo, Juan Antonio González Iglesias, César Antonio Molina Sánchez, José Luis Puerto, and Jesús Egido Salazar, with José María Lozano Castaño as secretary, unanimously awarded the book ‘Carreteras que brillan en el bosque,’ the 27th City of Salamanca Poetry Prize.
