by Alejandra Pizarnik (Author)

«Sombr?a, orgullosa, llena de suturas y de grietas, la obra pizarnikiana responde a una estructura del deseo. -Mar?a Negroni

En el pr?logo a esta Prosa completa de la m?tica poeta argentina Alejandra Pizarnik, Ana Nu?o nos habla de este libro imprescindible en los siguientes t?rminos: «El inter?s que presenta esta edici?n, respecto del ominoso imperativo de la novedad editorial, es triple: ofrece una ordenaci?n cronol?gica de un material que en su momento fue recogido en volumen, tanto en Argentina como en Espa?a; rescata textos, sobre todo, mas no exclusivamente, de cr?tica literaria de la autora, publicados originalmente en revistas literarias de dif?cil consulta, y da a leer este conjunto como un todo, lo que permite subrayar la coherencia y correspondencias m?ltiples entre prosa de creaci?n y prosa ensay?stica, por un lado, y, por otro, entre el conjunto de la prosa y la obra po?tica.

Los relatos [est?n] cuajados de motivos y figuras recurrentes la obra po?tica: la seducci?n y la nostalgia imposibles, la tentaci?n del silencio, la escritura concebida como espacio ceremonial donde se exaltan la vida, la libertad y la muerte, la infancia y sus espejismos, los espejos y el doble amenazador [...]. Importa menos, en este sentido, la extensi?n de los relatos que la intensa concentraci?n en ellos de un trabajo de escritura que busca exaltar los poderes del lenguaje. ?ste es --y no la muerte o la locura o el suicidio-- el gran motor de la obra de Pizarnik.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

"Somber, proud, full of cracks and sutures, Pizarnik's work is structured by desire." -Mar?a Negroni

In the prologue to the Complete Prose of the legendary Argentine poet Alejandra Pizarnik, Ana Nu?o introduces this essential volume as follows: "The significance of this edition, in terms of the ominous imperative demanded of any new release, is threefold: It offers a chronological ordering of material that was collected in bulk from Argentina and Spain; it salvages examples of the author's literary criticism - and much more - published originally in obscure literary journals; and it allows this collection to be read as a whole, underscoring the coherence and multiple connections between, on the one hand, [Pizarnik's] creative prose and essays, and, on the other, her prose and poetry.

"Her stories feature the same recurring figures and motifs of her poems: seduction and nostalgia; the temptation of silence; writing as a ceremonial act that exalts life, death and freedom; childhood and its mirages; mirrors and ominous doppelg?ngers [...]. The length of these pieces is less important than their emphasis on exalting the power of language. This - not death, madness or suicide - was what drove Pizarnik's work."
