The Collected Poems is the one volume that Stevens intended to contain all the poems he wished to preserve, presented in the way he wanted. It is an enduring monument to his dazzling achievement.

Alejandro Jodorowsky, cineasta, tarólogo, psicomago, novelista, invitando a una mutación en lo más profundo del ser, explora los meandros del alma humana con "humildad de perro", sin dictar pretenciosas sentencias de filólosofo o de maestro místico. "La facultad de pensar es el más cruel regalo que los dioses nos han dado". Poemas que mezclan a la vez la realidad de un mundo cruel y maravilloso, entre sagrado y profano. Palabra tras palabra, como se deshojan uno a uno los pétalos de una flor, Jodorowsky busca un camino entre las espinas.

Welcome to my World of Modern Romance. I want to take you on a journey around many kinds of love: self love, marriage, lust and sex, and everything in between. I live in a realm between a romance fantasy land and being a hopeless romantic. What can I say, I find bits of myself in all of them! It became blatantly apparent last year, in 2020. What an insane year! Turns out I have quite a vulnerable heart and I tend to give into these romantic tendencies that have been both a blessing and a curse.
