Sinopsis del Libro

Libro Concave Mirrors / Espejos Concavos

I am delighted to see this second book in the Bridges Series come to print. I originally conceived of this series of books to be a bridge between two cultures, a bridge between colleagues, friends and fellow writers - two Cubans and two Canadians in each book. Ever since the inception of the CCLA in 2004 we have tried to live up to our mandate: The mandate of the Canada Cuba Literary Alliance is to advance cultural solidarity between Canada and Cuba through the creative expression of poetry, prose, art and photography. This book will evidence our ongoing success. For me personally this book is fulfilling my dream. It is warming for me to see my friends Manuel Garcia Verdecia, from Cuba, and Paul R. Carr, from Canada, united between these covers. I have known them since before I even conceived of the CCLA. I am also pleased to have the bridge built between me and my now new colleagues, Ernesto Galban Peramo and Hugh Hazelton and further to have this bridge constructed by my brother, Manuel de J. Velazquez Leon, the editor of this series. I graduated from Ontario College of Art and have been an active artist ever since then so it is also my pleasure to welcome fellow artist, Jose Manuel Gamayo Cordero to these pages. The bridge has been conceived, built and crossed. We welcome everyone that treads our same path. The title, Concave Mirrors, presents staggering connotations for a book of poetry. A concave mirror will reflect your image back to you but it will be upside down and backwards. This collection brings you the flipped images of reality - flipped images of climate and geography, the flipped realities of political struggle. Gliding clouds will turn into a woman of milky skin but all the time simply an inverted image of hope. We are led into the absurdities of a baseball game and the flip image of ritual and convention. Are you ready to question why a ball player grabs his crotch and find the inversion that might be a reflection of yourself? On one level concave simply means curving inwards. It is inevitable that this, not so simple book, of poetry will help you look inward and give you something to reflect on. I hope you enjoy this fine collection that is a concave bridge to other realms.

“En retrospectiva. ¡Que enigmática es la sucesión de causas que nos trajo hasta aquí! Una rueda, puesta en movimiento, no sabemos cuándo. Infancia: ¿Cuántos recuerdos guardamos de ella? Memoria, caja negra. Juventud: ¿Cuántos recuerdos guardamos de ella?, otra memoria, caja negra. Madurez: ¿Cuántos recuerdos guardamos de ella? Memoria de memorias, otra caja negra. Vejez: ¿Cuántos futuros aun no vueltos recuerdo? ¿Habrá nuevas cajas negras? Así, a los interlocutores los encaminamos en las etapas de nuestro tiempo sobre la tierra. Ya la historia personal borrada, lo más sutil ...

Mi reino por este mundo

Libro Mi reino por este mundo

Vida y poesía, vida y amor vida y libertad. Esta triada, que los surrealistas comulgaron entre sueno y realidad, no es sólo una bandera de acción sino una bandeja de asombro y fascinación donde se despliega la obra poética de Jotamario Arbeláez. Así viene allí al desnudo "el cuerpo de ella" donde las palabras hacen el amor con la poesía; viene "el profeta en su casa" recordando para recordar "la casa de memoria vienen los santos aliñados con "zen y santidad" desfilando con sandalias en la cabeza y cien pies en la tierra; viene en "paños menores" la impudicia de un "culito de rana"...

Libro Vinte poemas de amor e uma canção desesperada

"Posso escrever os versos mais tristes esta noite. / Eu a quis, e às vezes ela também me queria..." Publicado originalmente em 1924, "Vinte poemas de amor e uma canção desesperada" é até hoje um dos títulos mais vendidos de poesia em língua espanhola. Foi o segundo livro lançado pelo jovem Pablo Neruda (1904-1973) e já se vê aqui os principais temas que marcariam toda a obra literária do autor: o espanto do ser humano diante da experiência amorosa, o louvor à mulher amada e a celebração das paisagens chilenas.
