Haroldo Conti was born in the province of Buenos Aires in 1925. He studied at a Salesian school and a Jesuit seminary before graduating with a degree in philosophy from the University of Buenos Aires. In his professional life, Conti was variously employed as an actor, a bank clerk, a Latin teacher and a screenwriter.
After the publication of Southeaster in 1962, he went on to write three more novels as well as several short story collections. He is the recipient of a number of important literary prizes, including the Casa de las Américas Prize. Conti was arrested in his apartment after the military coup of 1976, and is currently included on the list of the permanently disappeared.
Jon Lindsay Miles lives and works in southern Spain, also publishing as Immigrant Press. The translation of Conti’s Southeaster (2013) followed a hybrid guide-novel of Úbeda (Along the Way. Walking in Úbeda, 2009) and a bilingual collection of mediated stories of migration (Desde las Américas a Jaén/From the Americas to Jaén, 2011). He pays for this life by teaching English conversation at an outpost of the University of Jaén.
John King is Emeritus Professor of Latin American Literature at Warwick University. His research focuses on the cinema and literature of Argentina and Mexico in particular, and he edited The Cambridge Companion to Modern Latin American Culture (CUP, 2004), among other publications.
