«Mujer polémica y con tradictoria, Guadalupe Amor, mejor conocida como Pita Amor, fue una poeta admirada aunque también criticada - tanto por los que la trataron a lo largo de su vida como por los que la han conocido a través de su obra poética. En esta, Pita plasmó y expresó sus angustias existenciales, sus dudas sobre Dios, sus ansias sobre la muerte, sus pulsiones amorosas y eróticas y sus visiones acerca de sí misma y del mundo. En su vida cohabitaron el talento - rayando en  lo sublime ­con el hedonismo; el arrebato místico con los placeres mundanos; la vanidad exultante con las heridas inferidas por las tragedias personales. Con descarnada sinceridad - solo en ocasiones y de manera velada - , Pita desnudo a través de su poesía estas facetas de su agitada existencia.» —Eduardo Sepulveda Amor
«Esta antología poética contiene los versos que nosotros, los editores, consideramos más representativos de la poeta Guadalupe Amor.[...] Esperemos que es te gran esfuerzo tenga el poder para formar a nuevos lectores de la obra poética de Guadalupe Amor, así como también constituir un cuerpo poético digno de sus fiel es lectores -   algunos desde sus primeros libros- que, a su vez, cumpla con sus rigurosas expectativas literarias.» —Michael K. Schuessler
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
“A controversial and contradictory woman, Guadalupe Amor, better known as Pita Amor, was an admired but also criticized poet -both by those who she knew personally throughout her life and by those who have known her through her poetic work. Here, Pita captured and expressed her existential anguish, her doubts about God, her anxiety about death, her love and erotic drives, and her visions about herself and the world. In her life, talent -bordering on the sublime -coexisted with hedonism; the mystical euphoria with worldly pleasures; the joyful vanity with the wounds inflicted by personal tragedies. Through her poetry and with stark honesty, Pita unveiled these sides of her troubled existence.” —Eduardo Sepulveda Amor
“This poetic anthology contains the verses that we, the editors, consider most representative of poet Guadalupe Amor. [...] We hope that this great effort will be able to bring new readers to Guadalupe Amor’s poetic work, as well as create a poetic body of work worthy of its faithful readers,one that meets their rigorous literary expectations.” —Michael K. Schuessler
