Escribiendo poesa en el pas de los imbciles. / Escribiendo con mi hijo en las rodillas. / Escribiendo hasta que cae la noche / con un estruendo de los mil demonios. / Los demonios que han de llevarme al infierno, / pero escribiendo.Bolao se sinti siempre, en esencia, un poeta, pese a que el reconocimiento le lleg por su narrativa. Este volumen recoge, adems de los publicados en La Universidad Desconocida, Los perros romnticos y Tres, los poemas que aparecieron en revistas, plaquettes y volmenes colectivos en sus comienzos literarios y que desde entonces han permanecido inencontrables.En todos ellos ahonda en los temas fundamentales de su obra: el amor, la muerte, el exilio, la literatura... La economa expresiva, la audacia formal y temtica, el vanguardismo y la tensin potica convierten a Bolao en uno de los exponentes ms singulares de la poesa contempornea en espaol.Vio en la poesa una forma de rebelda y una intriga existencial que engrandeca la vida. Es curioso, porque sin esa apelacin a la poesa no se puede entender el conjunto de su obra. Hay poesa escondida en sus novelas y hay novelas interrumpidas en su poesa. Porque todo son palabras. Como todo son palabras, Bolao busc aquellas que ms dolan o ms decan, o ms escondan, o ms cercanas estaban de lo que vivi.ENGLISH DESCRIPTION'Writing poetry in a country of idiots. / Writing with my son on my lap. / Writing until night falls / with a roar of a thousand demons. / The demons who are to take me to hell, / but writing none the less. 'Despite all the recognition that he received for his narrative work, in essence, Bolao always saw himself as a poet. In addition to those poems published in La Universidad Desconocida / The Unknown University, Los perros romanticos / The Romantic Dogs, and Tres/ Three, this volume also collects his poems published in magazines and collections and have since remained hard to find collectables. In all of them he explores the recurring fundamental themes in his works: love, death, exile, literature ... All of these, and his poetic drive, make Bolao a unique exponent of contemporary poetry in Spanish.He saw in poetry a form of rebellion and an existential intrigue that magnified life. Its interesting that without that appeal to poetry the whole of his work would not be understood. There is hidden poetry in his novels and there are interrupted novels in his poetry. Because everything is words. As they are all words, Bolao looked for those words that hurt the most or said the most, or hid the most, or were closest to what he was living.
