María Esperanza Dolores Zambrano Sánchez was born on November 14, 1901, in Dolores Hidalgo, Guanajuato, Mexico. the author of a short poetic work, which she released in limited editions. All of her work was characterized by the use of resources of Modernismo origin, such as Alexandrine verse, the search for sonority, decadent sensuality, and experimentation in stanza forms. Furthermore, her way of using adjectives is reminiscent of Ramón López Velarde's style. La inquietud joyante, her first book, was a surprise in the Mexican poetry scene, as never before had a woman referred directly to her intimacy and her amorous desires. This line is continued by her next book, Los ritmos de los secretos, although her feeling of intimacy is further accentuated. In Canciones del amor perfecto her lyrics become an exaltation of married love and the happiness that motherhood causes. With Retablos del Viejo Guanajuato, she is interested in popular and regional poetry, while Fuga de estío marks her return to intimate poetry, although with a tone of serenity and resignation in the face of old age and heartbreak.
