The Eldest

POETRY, LAGUNA LIBROS. 2025, 96 PAGES

In this novel in verse, or narrative poem, Carolina Sanín enters the jungle to observe the eldest of four children who were lost in the Amazon for forty days between May and June 2023.

“It was the story of the breath
of a handful who wandered without straying
at thirteen, nine,
five, and almost one.
They rode an abyss.”
