In Antígona González, Sara Uribe shapes a powerful collection of poems from an ensemble of various discourses and intertextual references. In addition to the obvious resignification of the classic character of Antigone and its multiple variations in the context of violence in Latin America, Uribe also reuses newspapers, testimonies of the families of the missing, academic texts and even the work of Juan Rulfo´s, to represent the tragedy of irrational violence in contemporary Mexico. However, far from putting the focus on explicit violence against the bodies, Uribe chooses a little-explored angle in Mexico: the drama of the missing and the search by the relatives. In Uribe's magnificent collection of poems, Antigone is a Collective Arrangement of Utterance that speaks for all the direct or collateral victims of contemporary violence.
