Poemas escritos entre 1979 y 1983, se trata de la bitácora de un sobreviviente de la tempestad que fue el siglo XX.
Todo es efÃmero y jamás se repite , afirma José Emilio Pacheco para recordarnos la brevedad de nuestro tránsito por la tierra. Asumimos que el mar se habrá cambiado en desierto / cuando ya no [estemos] aquà para mirarlo y amarlo , pero olvidamos que esa condición fugaz es la que le da un matiz extraordinario a la existencia: todo es valioso porque todo es irrepetible .
Los trabajos del mar reúne poemas escritos entre 1979 y 1983. En ellos José Emilio Pacheco concilia la tradición grecolatina y oriental con la poesÃa norteamericana objetivista, en un libro entrañable que nos invita a aprehender el instante fugaz.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
Poems written between 1979 and 1983, this is the journal of a survivor of the storm that was the 20th century.
Everything is ephemeral and never repeats, states José Emilio Pacheco, reminding us of the brevity of our time on Earth. We assume that the sea will have turned to desert / when we are no longer here to see and love it, but we forget that this fleeting condition is what gives existence its extraordinary hue: everything is valuable because everything is unrepeatable.
Los trabajos del mar brings together poems written between 1979 and 1983. In them, José Emilio Pacheco reconciles the Greco-Latin and Eastern traditions with Objectivist North American poetry, in a heartfelt book that invites us to grasp the fleeting moment.
