Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. En los poemas de Jose Emilio Pacheco, escribio Octavio Paz, se exalta la victoria de la naturaleza sobre la cultura y al exaltarla la transfigura, la convierte en palabra. El siglo XX se fue y se llevo consigo ambiciones sentenciadas al olvido. Morimos con las epocas que se extinguen, / inventamos edenes que no existieron. Transcurrimos en el tiempo que nos consume hasta que caemos en cuenta de que nunca logramos explicarnos el gran enigma / de estar aqui un solo largo instante entre el porvenir y el pasado. Jose Emilio Pacheco escribio en el ocaso del milenio los poemas reunidos en Siglo pasado (Desenlace) (1999-2000). En ellos decanto el ultimo aliento de un tiempo que vio materializar y derrumbarse, un mundo de aspiraciones que se extinguio con su inevitable carga de gloria y decepcion. Fracase. Fue mi culpa. Lo reconozco. / Pero en manera alguna pido perdon o indulgencia: / Eso me pasa por intentar lo imposible. ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONIn the poems of Jose Emilio Pacheco, wrote Octavio Paz, the triumph of nature over culture is exalted--and in exalting it, he transfigures it, turning it into word. The twentieth century faded, taking with it ambitions condemned to oblivion. "We die with the eras that vanish, / we invented Edens that never were." We drift through time as it consumes us, until we realize we never truly managed to "make sense of the great enigma / of being here for one long moment between the future and the past." Jose Emilio Pacheco wrote the poems gathered in Siglo pasado (Desenlace) (1999-2000) at the close of the millennium. In them, he distilled the final breath of an era he had seen both rise and crumble--a world of aspirations extinguished, weighed with both glory and disillusionment. "I failed. It was my fault. I admit it. / But I ask neither pardon nor indulgence: / That's what I get for attempting the impossible."

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. La crisis de la mediana edad es un chiste, pero a mi no me hace ni puta gracia.Si estas hasta los huevos de tu trabajo, leete el capitulo 1.Si quieres abandonar a tus hijos en una gasolinera, leete el capitulo 2.Si ya no follas ni en tu cumple, leete el capitulo 3.Si dudas de tu hombria, leete el capitulo 4.Si cada dia eres mas cascarrabias, leete el capitulo 5.Si estas hasta los huevos de tu trabajo, quieres abandonar a tus hijos en una gasolinera, ya no follas ni en tu cumple, dudas de tu hombria y cada dia eres mas cascarrabias, pegate un tiro y acaba ya con este sufrimiento.Es broma. Leete el libro antes y luego ya si eso te pegas el tiro.Inigo no es escritor. Le encantaria serlo, pero malgasta su vida en otro trabajo. No se atreve a dejarlo porque su mujer se la corta. Aunque para lo que la usa, tampoco se perdia nada. Hasta le haria un favor, ya tiene cuatro hijos y cada dia esta mas salido. Ha perdido el norte, da pena verlo en Instagram. Es una tragedia. Le propusimos un trato: si escribia algo decente sobre su crisis, lo publicabamos. El resultado es este libro: lo mas indecente que hemos leido nunca. Consideralo una obra de caridad. Los ingresos iran destinados a hacernos mas ricos, pero tambien sacara del pozo a otros cuarentones (al pobre Inigo no le salva ni Dios).ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONMiddle-age crisis is a joke, but I just dont think its fucking funny.If you are sick of your job, read chapter 1.If you want to abandon your children at a gas station, read chapter 2.If you no longer fuck on your birthday, read chapter 3.If you are questioning your manhood, read chapter 4.If you are getting grumpier every day, read chapter 5.If you are fucking tired of your job, want to abandon your children at a gas station, no longer fuck on your birthday, question your manhood, and behave grumpier every day, shoot yourself and end this misery already.Just kidding. Read this book first and then see about shooting yourself. Inigo is not a writer. He would love to be one, but he is throwing his life away working on something else. He doesnt dare quit his job because his wife would cut his dick off. But for the use hes been giving it, its not like he would miss out on anything. It would even be a kindness, since he already has four kids and hes already out. He has lost his north; its embarrassing to see his Instagram. It is a tragedy. We made him a deal: if he wrote anything decent about his crisis, we would publish it. This book is the result: the most indecent thing weve ever read. Consider it a charity case. The income is destined to make us richer, but it will also help other men in their forties stand on their feet. (Poor Inigo is beyond salvation.)
