Overview
Premio Nobel de Literatura en 1945
En esta nueva entrega de la colección Poesía Portátil, se recopilan los mejores versos de Gabriela Mistral, aquella que hizo de la poesía la voz directa de su pueblo y de su mundo. No cabe duda de que se ha convertido en una poeta eterna cuya muerte no consiguió borrar su excepcional trabajo y su obra resuena más viva que nunca. Autora de una extensa obra que no deja de circular y acoger nuevas lecturas, fue también –además de poeta– pedagoga, viajera, intelectual, diplomática, emigrante y «madre queer de la nación».
Merecedora del Premio Nobel en 1945, siendo la primera mujer iberoamericana y la segunda latinoamericana en recibirlo, Gabriela Mistral es una de las voces femeninas más relevantes de la poesía hispanoamericana del siglo XX. Una poeta indispensable en la biblioteca de cualquier lector.
Esta edición, cuya selección ha ido a cargo de la escritora Luna Miguel, es una perfecta puerta de entrada a los singulares territorios de la mejor Mistral.
«Siento mi corazón en la dulzura
fundirse como ceras:
son un óleo tardo
y no un vino mis venas,
y siento que mi vida se va huyendo,
callada y dulce como la gacela».
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
Flash Poetry welcomes to its collection one of the most relevant poetic voices of the twentieth century: Gabriela Mistral.
Nobel Prize in Literature, 1945.
The new issue of the Flash Poetry collection compiles the greatest verses of Gabriela Mistral, a woman who made poetry the direct voice of her people and her world. Undoubtedly, she has become an eternal poet whose death did not take away her exceptional work. Her poetry resounds more vividly than ever. Author of an extensive work that still circulates and gathers new readers, she was also—besides a poet—a pedagogue, a traveler, an intellectual, a diplomat, an immigrant, and “the nation’s queer mother.”
Awarded the Nobel Prize in 1945, she became the first Latin American woman and the second Latin American to receive it. Gabriela Mistral is one of the most relevant female voices of Hispano-American poetry of the twentieth century. An essential poet in any reader’s library.
This edition, with a selection by writer Luna Miguel, is the perfect entryway to the singular territories of Mistral at her best.
