Muerte Desde El Paramo
"Termine el libro. Voy a enviartelo" fueron sus palabras y pense: "no, por favor no", porque recordar una guerra como aquella es volver a morir. Pero no me negue. La cobardia es un acto que reservo solo para mi cuando debo enfrentar mi memoria. Llego asi a mis manos el manuscrito de "Relatos del paramo" y comprobe que mi amigo le habia cambiado el titulo original y puesto en su lugar "La muerte desde el paramo". Inmediatamente acudieron aquellos momentos a esta cansada mente mia. Las palabras me trajeron olores, gritos, rostros que viajan junto al mio desde aquellos dias de 20 anos atras y que no olvidare porque es necesario mantenerlos vivos luego de que la guerra se los llevara como a un punado de hojarasca. Los hombres en la guerra no son otra cosa que un punado de hojarasca. Luego de leer el manuscrito, me pregunte como mi amigo puede hacer poesia con la guerra y como puede hacer que la guerra se transforme en un acto de humanidad y de horrenda belleza. Solo lo hace. B.

Violeta Parra
The first book in English to consider the full extent of the accomplishments and influence the Chilean cultural icon, Violeta Parra.Violeta Parra was an extraordinary figure. She is best known for her contribution to the Latin American New Song movement and for her visual art, which was exhibited in the Musée des Arts Décoratifs of the Louvre gallery in 1964. Parra spent her early career singing Mexican songs in bars and researching traditional Chilean culture. All the different phases of Parra's life and work are discussed in this book, with analyses of her music, paintings, sculptures, embroideries (arpilleras), and poetry. Her exhibition in the Louvre gallery and the music venue that she set up before she died, La Carpa de la Reina, are also covered. Among the individual essays collected here are seminal works by Patricio Manns and Leonidas Morales, which have been translated into English for the first time. These works introduce the historical and biographical context for Parra's work. Other essays feature thelatest research and findings by Catherine Boyle, Ericka Verba, Paula Miranda, Serda Yalkin, Romina A. Green, and Lorna Dillon. The book also includes an interview with Violeta Parra's brother, the influential poet Nicanor Parra and a Foreword by Marjorie Agosín. Lorna Dillon earned her PhD at King's College London. She is currently a network facilitator and associate lecturer at the University of Kent.
