Living poetry for understanding our everyday lives
Ritmo de lucha is Eva Alarte Garví’s first poetry collection, originally published in 2013 and reissued in 2026 for its incandescent relevance today.
It articulates a clear, direct voice, open to the conflicts of our time: the distance between individual awareness and communal life; questions about the legitimacy of striving to overcome, to understand the world and ourselves; and the need to create and move through our words as forces that shape our reality.
The book unfolds in three movements:
«Introducción de controversias»: a questioning of its very reason for being;
«Ritmo de lucha»: open struggle against an unjust, imposed reality; and
«Alma en guerra»: the inner struggle to overcome our own conscious and unconscious barriers and limitations.
This poetry collection combines strong rhythms and rhyme with assonance and free verse. Its short pieces move from an awakening to social critique and resilience toward an intimate, vulnerable process of inner reflection.
A companion to the poetry collection Compás de espera.
Now its poems are becoming songs. Listen to them and share the emotions they awaken in you here
