Raúl Zurita approfondit dans ce recueil sa vision lyrique et décharnée de la misère politique et sociale de l'Amérique latine. Ces circonstances historiques et politiques parcourent l'oeuvre du poète, qui, à partir des obscures histoires de sa propre existence, entreprend un parcours incertain et douloureux à la recherche d'une guérison. Cette oeuvre aborde le sujet de la disparition politique mise en place par les dictatures militaires en Amérique latine.

Raúl Zurita was born in Santiago de Chile. In 1973 he was arrested by the Pinochet regime and imprisoned in the hold of a ship. He was a founder of the group Colectivo Acciones de Arte (CADA), which undertook extremely risky public-art actions against the regime. In 1982 five airplanes wrote his poem “La Vida Nueva” in the sky above New York City, and in 1993 he had the phrase “NEITHER PAIN NOR FEAR” bulldozed into the Atacama Desert in a permanent, two-mile-long installation, visible only from above. Zurita received the Chilean National Prize for Literature in 2000 and the Asan Memorial World Poetry Prize in 2018.
