Overview

«Un libro construido a caballo entre el español y el ayöök (mixe), donde un territorio saturado en neblina se hilvana con la pasión por la música y la tragedia de los vínculos truncados, donde la frontera entre lo terrenal y lo espiritual se trenza con la herida y un dolor innombrable se articula por fin gracias a la lengua.» —MARINA AZAHUA

Para sobrellevar su postración debido a una enfermedad crónica, Ixyam se dispone a escribir el relato de una familia de compositores filarmónicos, cuya misteriosa historia se ha vuelto leyenda en su pueblo, despertando sospechas: ¿es, acaso, su portento resultado de un pacto con la montaña? ¿Cuál es el precio a pagar por un don del cerro?

En Kopk poj: el aliento de la montaña, la música es el hilo que teje los dos planos narrativos: el presente de Ixyam, atravesado por la enfermedad y la escritura, y la tragedia de Mónico y sus hijos, donde el prodigio que los caracteriza se erige como herencia y destino. A través de esta doble línea, la novela construye un diálogo entre lo personal y lo comunitario; entre el cuerpo que se deteriora, los retos del acceso a la salud, las genealogías familiares, la pérdida del mixe en las nuevas generaciones y un pueblo que lo observa todo.

Con una estructura disruptiva y una prosa profundamente poética que oscila entre el ayöök y el español, Mito Reyes nos entrega un retrato poderoso sobre la memoria colectiva, la fragilidad humana y la fuerza transformadora de la música, emblema identitario del pueblo mixe que, como sus bandas de aliento, se reinventa en cada nota para seguir existiendo.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

“A book straddling Spanish and Ayöök (Mixe), where a mist-shrouded landscape intertwines with a passion for music and the tragedy of severed bonds, where the boundary between the earthly and the spiritual is woven with the wound, and an unspeakable pain is finally articulated through language.” —MARINA AZAHUA

To cope with his despondency due to a chronic illness, Ixyam sets out to write the story of a family of philharmonic composers, whose mysterious history has become a legend in his village, arousing suspicion: Is their prodigious talent, perhaps, the result of a pact with the mountain? What is the price to pay for a gift from the hills?

In Kopk Poj: The Breath of the Mountain, music is the thread that weaves together the two narrative planes: the present of Ixyam, marked by illness and writing, and the tragedy of Mónico and his children, where the prodigy that defines them stands as both legacy and destiny. Through this dual narrative thread, the novel forges a dialogue between the personal and the communal; between the deteriorating body, the challenges of accessing healthcare, family genealogies, the loss of Mixe identity in the younger generations, and a village that observes it all.

With a disruptive structure and deeply poetic prose that oscillates between Ayöök and Spanish, Mito Reyes offers us a powerful portrait of collective memory, human fragility, and the transformative power of music—an emblem of identity for the Mixe people who, like their marching bands, reinvent themselves with every note to continue existing.
