About this person
Manuel Asur is a Spanish essayist and poet in Asturian. He's considered to be one of the first modern poets in this language. He has a PhD in Philosophy. His book, Cancios y poemes pa un riscar meant the beginning in 1977 of the rebirth of Asturian literature, because he contributed with a poetry more modern and daring than anything written before in this language. Most of his works talk about the socio-political facts of the moment. Some became very popular in Asturias in the 1970s since the group Nuberu used them as lyrics for their songs. He wrote also a book of short stories in 1987, Hai una llinia trazada, consisting of short stories that he says to consider "almost monologues". He's a current contributor to La Nueva España publications and works in the Consejería de Medio Rural y Pesca del Principado de Asturias.
