Synopsis | The main idea of Peces del aire altisísimo is that poetry, as a vital impulse and ultimate vocation of a life, is not restricted exclusively to the texts of those who construct it with their incessant work. On the contrary, this inclination towards the construction of new corridors and rooms of our home that is language, extends into the daily life of every poet. Gilberto Owen, Carlos Pellicer, Luis Cernuda, Rubén Bonifaz Núño, Alí Chumacero and Efraín Huerta are some of the poets whose life and work are woven together by Vicente Quirarte in this book, to show that the daily choices, the poet's own habits and obsessions, as well as his vices and virtues, are not only the inexorable consequence of his personality, but extensions of his literary work itself; expansions of the prodigious worlds that they built with their pen. Thanks to the erudition of a committed and passionate reader, but also with the closeness and intimacy of a friend, Quirarte offers wonderful portraits of characters whose words have already found their place as the pinnacles of Mexican literature. |
