José Carlos Sánchez-Lara

Cienfuegos (Cuba), 1969. Poet, storyteller. His first book (‘Regiones’, Nogueras Prize, Extramuros, 2003) is considered a rare work within the literary avant-garde in Cuba over the last decade. Critic Ismael González Castañer includes it among the most “disruptive,” “innovative,” “unconventional,” and “highly experimental” texts produced during that period. Among others, he has published the volumes ‘Pequeña corrección del mito I’ (Arcano, 2011); ‘Construcciones / Desmontajes’ (Clepsidra ediciones, 2025); and ‘Debajo’ (Clepsidra ediciones, 2025). He teaches workshops on micro-narrative and objectivist poetry. He lives in Concord, California.
