Biography
Alfonsina Storni was a poet and journalist in Argentina with powerful, sensual and ironic works that deal with the stereotypes of women, their dissatisfaction with the Hispanic-American man, among others.
She had a difficult life financially and with problems with depression, being a single mother and suffering gender prejudice in the literary world. She is considered one of the greatest poets of her time, having her work vulgarized because she is a woman talking about desire.
