Overview

Un conmovedor testimonio de Piedad Bonnett.

Ā«ĀæHasta dĆ³nde puede llegar la literatura? En este libro dedicado a la vida y la muerte de su hijo Daniel, Piedad Bonnett alcanza con las palabras los lugares mĆ”s extremos de la existencia. La naturalidad y la extraƱeza conviven en sus pĆ”ginas igual que en su mirada conviven la sequedad de la inteligencia y el latido mĆ”s intenso de la emociĆ³n. Buscar respuestas es sĆ³lo un modo de hacerse preguntas, de negociar con las preguntas, de saber cuĆ”ntas preguntas caben en una obsesiĆ³n. Es tambiĆ©n una forma de seguir cuidando al hijo mĆ”s allĆ” de la muerte, de defenderlo contra el frĆ­o, comprarle ropa nueva, preguntarle por los estudios y por su arte.

Aunque no haya ningĆŗn sobre en la habitaciĆ³n, todo suicidio es una carta a los seres que se dejan en la vida. El dolor, el amor, los recuerdos, las imaginaciones, los sentimientos de culpa, la conciencia de haber ayudado y la certeza de la enfermedad se mezclan en nuestros ojos al leer esa carta y nos interpelan sobre nuestra propia realidad. Piedad Bonnett ha vivido el duelo en compaƱƭa de la literatura. Toda la lucidez y toda la emociĆ³n pudorosa que han caracterizado su poesĆ­a y su narrativa se condensan aquĆ­. La gran literatura convierte la historia personal en una experiencia humana colectiva. Por eso este libro habla de la fragilidad de cualquier vida, de cualquier mundo en el que pueden desaparecer los oficios y las artes, de cualquier estado que pretenda engaƱarnos con su estabilidad. Habla tambiĆ©n de la necesidad de seguir viviendoĀ». -Luis GarcĆ­a Montero

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A moving testimonial by Piedad Bonnett.

ā€œHow far can literature take us? In this book dedicated to the life and death of her son, Daniel, Piedad Bonnett successfully uses words to reach the extremes of our existence. Affability and strangeness coexist in its pages, along with detached intelligence, and the most intense emotions. Looking for answers is just a way of asking questions, of negotiating with words, of knowing how many words fits inside an obsession. For Bonnett, it is also a way of continuing to care for her son beyond the grave, of sheltering him from cold, buying him new clothes, asking him about his schoolwork and his art.
Ā 
Even if no note is left behind, every suicide is a letter to the ones left behind. Grief, love, memories, fantasies, guilt, the knowledge of having helped, and the weight of illness, all come into play in our reading of this letter and color our own reality. Piedad Bonnett has lived through this pain in the company of literature. The clarity and emotion that characterize her poems and prose find expression here. Great literature turns personal stories into a collective human experience, and so this book acknowledges the fragility of all life, of artistic production and careers, of any state we try to convince ourselves is permanent. But it also stresses the need to keep living.ā€-Luis GarcĆ­a Montero
