Una antología de los mejores relatos de Alejandra Pizarnik, una autora esencial en la literatura del siglo XX en español y un mito literario más vivo que nunca No existe en el mundo nada más excitante y aterrador que releer a Pizarnik . Luna Miguel La vida de Alejandra también es poesía . Mariana Enriquez Alejandra Pizarnik es una de las escritoras en español más influyentes de la literatura de nuestro tiempo. Es la creadora de una escritura, en sus propias palabras, densa y peligrosa , pero también de una de las experiencias de lectura más revolucionarias que podamos encontrar. Una revolución, nos cuenta Gabriela Borrelli Azara en su epílogo, interna y profunda, cuyo movimiento conduce al enigma. Esta antología recoge los mejores textos en prosa de Pizarnik, quizá la parte más desconocida de una obra en la que los géneros se transgreden constantemente. Así lo explica Luna Miguel en su prólogo: Empeñarse en decir que esto no es poesía, ya lo verán, sería bastante discutible. [.] Sus pequeños cuentos alucinados son largos poemas. Su teatro es una escenificación de su ritmo poético. Sus relatos largos o crónicas esconden todas las trampas y los trucos de su poesía . Una traición mística es, en definitiva, un viaje asombroso, lúdico y a ratos delirante por el universo narrativo de Pizarnik, que nos regala las claves de su obra: la visión irónica y burlesca de la realidad y de sí misma, la reflexión sobre el lenguaje, la muerte, así como los límites entre la cordura y la locura. Edición y prólogo de Luna Miguel. Epílogo de Gabriela Borrelli AzaraLa crítica ha dicho. La prosa de Alejandra fue la gran explosión de una acumulación creativa que tenemos el privilegio de leer. [.] Un manifiesto a favor de su tartamudeo pensante, su voz de susurro orgásmicoö o la risa que despertaba en sus amigos . Gabriela Borrelli Azara La vida de Alejandra también es poesía . Mariana Enriquez Sombría,orgullosa, llena de suturas y de grietas, la obra pizarnikiana responde a una estructura del deseo . María Negroni Cada poema [suyo] es el cubo de una inmensa rueda . Julio Cortázar Si tuviera que escoger una cocina literaria para instalarme [.] viviría muy a gusto en la de Alejandra Pizarnik . Roberto Bolaño Un hecho excepcional en la literatura argentina, que puede adjudicarse al aura de prestigio casi legendario que ha envuelto la vida y la obra de Alejandra Pizarnik . César Aira Dotada como pocas para transmitir al lector el terror y la ternura que llevaba dentro . Cristina Peri Rossi, Premio Cervantes LIBRO

Alejandra Pizarnik, born Flora Alejandra Pizarnik (1936-1972), was Argentine poet whose poems are known for their stifling sense of exile and rootlessness. Pizarnik was born into a family of Jewish immigrants from eastern Europe. She attended the University of Buenos Aires, where she studied philosophy and literature. Later she ventured into painting, studying with the Catalan Argentine painter Juan Batlle Planas. In 1960 she moved to Paris, where she worked for French publishing houses and magazines. She wrote the present collection of poems when she was 26 and living in Paris.
