Altazor, Or, a Voyage in a Parachute: Poem in VII Cantos (1919)
by Eliot Weinberger and Vicente Huidobro
Vicente Huidobro was a one-man movement (Creationism) in the modernist swirl of Paris and Barcelona between the two World Wars. His masterpiece was the 1931 book-length epic Altazor, a Machine Age paean to flight that sends its hero hurtling through Einsteinian space at light speed.
