Houston, I'm the Problem

The first English-language collection of Oscar Garcia Sierra, one of Spain's most relevant young authors, performs and interrogates the desires and disillusionments of millennial culture. Garcia Sierra, one of the central figures of the Spanish young literature movement, constructs bold, strange, uncomfortable poems from everyday life, touching on mental illness, drugs, and heartbreak. His first novel, Facendera, has brought him broad critical acclaim in Spain. HOUSTON, I'M THE PROBLEM, a selection from his first poetry collection topped off with more recent poems, is the first of his books to appear in English translation.
