About this item

Versión corregida, ampliada y definitiva de los diarios de Alejandra Pizarnik. «Una constante de los diarios de escritores es que otros se encarguen de publicarlos póstumamente. Estas publicaciones podrían dar la impresión de ser una violación de la intimidad del diarista, pero no cabe duda de que, al conservarlos, el escritor está indicándonos que es consciente del valor intrínseco que tienen. Eso es aún más evidente en el caso de Alejandra Pizarnik, ya que conservó sus cuadernos hasta el último momento», comenta Ana Becciu en la nota que acompaña esta nueva edición, corregida y ampliada, con muchos fragmentos reveladores que hasta ahora nunca habían visto la luz, de los diarios de una mujer que convirtió su angustia en un destilado de palabras duras y hermosas. Su obsesión por escribir, sus dudas, y sus ganas de comer, fumar y amar con voracidad hasta que el cansancio la derrumbaba... todo quedó apuntado en cuadernos y papeles sueltos que por fin han encontrado su lugar. Aun hoy, cuando ya se han cumplido cuarenta años desde de su muerte, la voz de Pizarnik acompaña al lector en un viaje donde la literatura importa y la vida duele. «A veces me gustaría registrarme por escrito en cuerpo y alma: dar cuenta de mi respiración, de mi tos, de mi cansancio, pero de una manera alarmantemente exacta, que se me oiga respirar, toser, llorar, si pudiera llorar.»—Alejandra Pizarnik, París, 3 de agosto de 1961 ENGLISH DESCRIPTION The revised, extended, and definite version of Alejandra Pizarnik’s diaries. “It is frequent that other people publish the diaries of writers posthumously. These publications could give an impression that there has been a violation of the diarist’s intimacy, but without a doubt, by preserving their diaries, writers are letting us know they are aware of their intrinsic value. This is even more evident in Alejandra Pizarnik’s case, since she kept her notebooks until the end,” says Ana Becciu in the note that accompanies this new revised and extended edition, with many revealing fragments that had never before seen the light, from the diaries of a woman who turned her anguish into a distilled form of harsh and beautiful words. Her obsession with writing, her doubts, and her desire to eat, smoke, and love voraciously until collapsing from exhaustion... everything was left on writing, in notebooks and random papers that finally found their place. Even today, forty years after her death, Pizarnik’s voice joins the reader on a journey where literature matters and life hurts. “Sometimes I would like to write myself body and soul: give an account of my breathing, my cough, my tiredness, but in an alarmingly accurate way, let me be heard breathing, coughing, crying, if I could cry.” —Alejandra Pizarnik, Paris, August 3, 1961
