Paraguayan Sea, a sublime love tale of border and gender travestias, moves in a language that defies immigration regulations
Originally written in Portunhol—a Spanish-Portuguese mix from where Brazil and Argentina border Paraguay—with Guaraní, Bueno’s Paraguayan Sea is a homage to life, to being embodied, to border crossing, and to language itself. Who is its Paraguayan narrator who has loved two men, old and young, in a hot/cold beach town in Brazil? A woman, as she says? A gay man switching pronouns? Paraguayan Sea is a river-to-the-sea of identities and migrations, its Portunhol translated into Frenglish by the polylingual poet Erín Moure.
