Miguel Velayos Quadrilateral

MIGUEL VELAYOS believes he is talking about the old sport of boxing, a noble and ancient art of courage and endurance, but the author from Avila is talking about nothing else but life. He does so at times with depth and transcendence, at others with sarcasm and the certain cynicism of someone who has suffered wounds and had to get up from the canvas. And that is what we are doing, raising our guard and resisting, getting up with each blow, trying to renew our laurels, to maintain our balance and reach the corner before the count of ten ends and the bell rings.

Miguel Velayos (Avila. 1978). To date he has published ten books of poetry, standing out among his latest works: "Desertor" (Editorial Amargord.), "Ofrenda o vanidad" (Editorial Páramo.) and "A nosotros la lluvia nunca nos pasará" (Editorial Baile del Sol.). He has received various awards such as, for example, the 1st Blas de Otero Poetry Prize from the UCM and the 1st prize in the Provincial Poetry Contest for Young People in the city of Avila.
