El mundo como ensayo

Aware that sometimes one must choose the less traveled path to get home, the poet and essayist Juan Malpartida confronts in this book—digressive, personal, yet always extraordinary—the very human aspiration to capture the infinity of the world in the concreteness of language, the philosophical need to account for reality without abandoning poetry. This unique existential dictionary does not seek to reach conclusions, but rather to offer passionate explorations, for its singular poetics comprises “rhizomes, a cappella songs, tales from the Arabian Nights […], risky departures from the furrow, fate and play in a portrait of the world from a barely visible corner of a self writing its own biography,” and thus invites the reader to appreciate it from beginning to end as a narrative as subjective as it is subtle.
