In Alicante, a dedicated circle of poets under the banner Parnassus will share selected poems from their latest books in a public recital this Monday. The event begins at 7:00 p.m. and takes place in the El Corte Inglés Cultural Area of the House Building on Avda. Federico Soto, 1-3, 1st floor. The gathering promises a night of intimate readings and personal reflections from a group that has become a focal point for contemporary poetry in the region.
The participating writers are Juan Antonio Urbano, who also coordinates the evening, along with Diana Antón, José Castellà, Manolo Condevolney, Rosa María Marcillas, Joaquín Martín, and Eugenia Sánchez. Each poet will present works that highlight their unique voice and sensibility, offering listeners a window into their creative process and emotional landscape.
As described by the organizers, the event centers on the idea that poetry is a channel for expressing inner feelings and diverse experiences. Attendees can expect a broad palette of expression, from subtle textures and varied musicality to the rhythmic push and pull that characterizes each poet’s approach to language. The recital is designed as a personal demonstration of poetic forms in which the inner self, memories, hopes, and concerns are laid bare through carefully chosen themes and linguistic choices.
The environment is welcoming and accessible, with free admission to the Ambito Culture room inside El Corte Inglés in Alicante. The organizers emphasize that the evening is not merely a reading but a shared moment where poets invite the audience to hear, feel, and respond to the language as it unfolds on the page and stage.
