Book Description:

May 1, 2006 Biblioteca Silvina Ocampo
Adolfo Bioy Casares afirmo alguna vez que Silvina Ocampo era inevitablemente original. A las obras de esta escritora mitica que justifican con mayor contundencia esa afirmacion se suma ahora Invenciones del recuerdo, una autobiografia en verso libre hallada entre sus papeles luego de su muerte, y que hoy emerge ante nuestros ojos con su fulgor intacto, como un tesoro largamente escondido. Estas paginas escritas con serena irreverencia, con una elegancia insobornable pero tambien con una dolorosa fidelidad al pasado, dispensan revelaciones en el sentido mas venerable del termino, porque en ellas se despliega el microcosmos domestico de un hogar patricio a comienzos del siglo XX, visto a traves de los ojos de una nina que se sentia la etcetera de la familia y que despreciaba los privilegios que le estaban destinados para buscar la compania de sirvientes y mendigos. Invenciones del recuerdo es asimismo un testimonio, unico en nuestra literatura, de la formacion de la mente de una poeta en sus deslumbramientos, en sus desilusiones inaugurales. Compuesto intermitentemente entre 1960 y 1987, puede definirselo como una autobiografia prenatal que huye del ilusorio rigor de las cronologias acumulando detalles robados al olvido. O como una visita guiada por la ninez de una de las figuras mas misteriosas y elusivas que han dado nuestras letras. A la manera de un catalogo de experiencias tempranas pero definitivas, conviven en sus versos los tormentos del misticismo y las epifanias profanas del sexo; la tacita comunion con la naturaleza y las primeras intimaciones de la inmortalidad y de la muerte; la conciencia lacerante del pecado y la irrupcion, tan cruel como natural, del mundo de las presciencias. Sigilosamente, Invenciones del recuerdo entabla un dialogo confidencial a traves de los siglos y las lenguas con otras paginas memorables sobre la infancia, como las que escribieron Wordsworth, De Quincey o Proust.
