Absence and Presence studies five women poets who wrote at the same time as the prestigious Generation of 27. The poetry of Concha Mendez, Josefina de la Torre, Rose Chacel, Carmen Conde, and Emestina de Champourcin is framed within a discussion of absence and presence, interrelated phenomena considered on the levels of both reception and text. The author explores how these poets created an environment of plasticity, immediacy, and vitality within their poetry and how they dealt with the implications of unfulfilled desire, loss, and loneliness.
