Berlin Interlude
Maria Negroni
Translated from Spanish by Michelle Gil-Montero
Berlin Interlude, by Maria Negroni, is a Spanish poetry collection from Argentina, translated by Michelle Gil-Montero, published by Off The Park Press, Black Square Editiions in 2021. It is an Argentine Spanish-language collection by Maria Negroni where exile, city, and interruption create a charged lyric pause. Berlin becomes an interlude rather than a destination, a temporary room inside history and desire. I would not ask the reader to solve this book before feeling it. The better invitation is to start with the image that will not quite explain itself, then follow the pressure of cadence, silence, and address. For this library, the book matters as more than a representative entry from Argentina. It gives English-language readers another route into how poetry travels: not as a tidy report from elsewhere, but as a living encounter with local weather, historical pressure, and the privacy of a voice.
