Antología de la poesía oral-traumática, cósmica y esquizofrénica de Enrique Valle / por Fredo Arias de la Canal. (OCLC #879577035)

I initially found a Spanish-language record for this title, and was happy to see that it was an RDA record with Spanish-language terms in 33X ( texto / no mediado / volumen ). The Spanish translation of RDA is not yet available in RDA toolkit, so I peeked into the French version. It lists the same carrier types (using French terms) and they have the same codes as the English terms! This says great things for international sharing of RDA records.
