Luz Pozo Garza

Luz Pozo Garza (Ribadeo, 21 July 1922 – A Coruña , 20 April 2020),[1] was a Spanish poet and a member of the Royal Galician Academy.

Her first works were published in Las Riberas del Eo, Lana Noche, Poesía Española, Ínsula or Vida Gallega.

[3] Later, after settling in Vigo, she developed a long teaching career at the Nigrán as a teacher of Spanish language and literature in Secondary education, retiring in 1987.

In her later work, Luz Pozo expressed a poetry charged with sensuality and depth, in which love, existential concern, homeland, freedom and even death intersect, composing texts of authenticity and maturity.

Next, the "Tribute to the writer in her land" was celebrated with her in Ribadeo, with a poem that she selected from the book Vida secreta de Rosalía.
