Overview
Veintidós poemas de gran contención y belleza, acompañados por dibujos de distintos objetos que, indiferentes al paso del tiempo, señalan la ausencia de sus dueños
El nuevo poemario de Piedad Bonnett es una obra que fusiona la contundencia de la palabra con la potencia de la imagen. Cada poema es un viaje rotundo hacia el centro de la experiencia humana: el dolor, la memoria, la ternura y la resistencia. Las imágenes, creadas por la propia autora, acompañan y expanden el sentido de los versos, generando una experiencia estética integral. Bonnett, con su inconfundible voz, nos invita a mirar de frente la herida y a descubrir en ella una fuente de revelación y belleza.
Bonnett, con su reconocida maestría, transforma lo cotidiano y lo fantástico en símbolo y lo personal en experiencia universal, logrando una obra de gran contundencia lírica y visual.
Este libro reafirma a su autora como una de las poetas más relevantes y premiadas de la literatura latinoamericana contemporánea.
