José Luis Rey, poetry to live fully

Born in Puente Genil, Córdoba, José Luis Rey started writing when he was just eight years old. Aged 14 he decided to dedicate to poetry after reading the work of the famous poet Federico García-Lorca. His poems have been translated to Portuguese, Swedish and English by the Harvard University. His greatest success came when he received the International Poetry Award of the Loewe Foundation in 2010. Later, in 2012, he also received the Tiflos Award.
