Poetic Obituaries: [Idea] Vilariño was one of the outstanding

figures of Uruguayan poetry, with her lyric creations collected in works such as "La Suplicante" (The Supplicant), "Poemas de Amor" (Love Poems) and "Nocturnos" (Nocturnes).

Also known as an essayist and literary critic, she was a member of the writers' group called the Generation of 45, to which Mario Benedetti, 88, also belonged and who is currently in a Montevideo hospital in critical condition.
