Thiago de Mello
34 books5 followersThiago de Mello, born in 1926 in the state of Amazonas, Brazil, is the most representative and celebrated poet of Amazonia. Presently, he is Minister of Culture of the State of Amazonas and has served, on many occasions, in important diplomatic posts in several countries, including Chile and Bolivia.
His literary career began in 1951 with the publication of his book Silencio e Palavra (Silence and Word). Since then, his whirlwind and wondrous creativity has continued unabated. The collection Vento Geral gathers a dozen books published before 1981.

His work was translated into Spanish by Thiago de Mello's close friend, Pablo Neruda, and by Mario Benedetti.
Thiago de Mello--in his essays, poems, and in his social and political activism--has always been a passionate defender of his native region, and has exalted it as a key ecological reserve for all humanity.

Relectura 2022: Lo volví a ver después de años y me dieron ganas de releerlo. Es un muy lindo poema.
1era lectura 2015: Este es un libro bastante cortito pero no por ello menos lindo. El poema del autor tiene estrofas cortas y preciosas, y cada una parece mostrar todo aquello que realmente debemos tener en cuenta para vivir, lo que es importante de verdad. Muy recomendable.

Los artículos tan bien logrados por Thiago De Mello logran emocionar. La traducción de Neruda otra obra de arte. Y hay que sumarle que en la edición que leí (de V&R editoras) tiene las hermosas pinturas de Dafni Amecke Tzitzivakos. Una lectura corta y amena.
