Synopsis "Lluvia Sobre el rio (in Spanish)"

Si Jim Dodge es hoy un autor de culto fundamentalmente reconocido por sus novelas, su primera pasión fue la poesía. Tras muchos años publicando anónimamente y leyendo en recitales a lo largo de la costa del Pacífico, decidió dar salida a este material en plaquettes y pequeñas ediciones de reducida distribución. Lluvia sobre el río reúne casi como un regalo para los amigos toda esa poesía y prosa breve los únicos textos del autor que no se habían traducido hasta ahora al castellano atravesada por la misma musicalidad y potencia imaginativa que su mejor prosa narrativa.

Jim Dodge (Santa Rosa, California, 1945) is an American novelist and poet, known for his style that blends folklore, fantasy, and cultural critique. He earned an MFA in creative writing from the University of Iowa in 1969 and has held various jobs, from sheepherder to environmental restorer. For years, he lived in a self-sufficient commune in Sonoma County. Since 1995, he has been the director of the creative writing program at Humboldt State University in California.

Among his most notable works are the novels Fup (1983), Not Fade Away (1987), and Stone Junction (1990). In 2002, he published Rain on the River, a collection of poems and short prose written between 1970 and 2001, translated into Spanish as Lluvia sobre el río in 2017. His work has been praised by authors like Thomas Pynchon and is characterized by a lyrical sensibility that combines humor, tenderness, and a deep connection with nature.
